ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Engine Oil Change

Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.

1. Turn the fuel valve to OFF to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage

(see page 21).

2. Wipe the oil filler area clean, then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick.

3. Place a suitable container next

to the mower to catch the used
oil, then tilt the mower on its
right side. The used oil will drain
through the filler neck. Allow the
oil to drain completely.

Please dispose of used motor
oil and the containers in a
manner that is compatible with
the environment. We suggest
you take it in a sealed container
to your local recycling center or
service station for reclamation.
Do not throw it in the trash, pour
it on the ground or down a
drain.

4. Fill with the recommended oil.

Do not overfill; measure the oil
level as shown on page 34.

Engine oil capacity:
0.58 US qt. (0.55

l

)

NOTICE

Using nondetergent oil can shorten the engine’s service life, and
using 2-stroke oil can damage the engine.
