ENGINE OIL CHANGE
Drain the oil in the engine while the engine is warm. Warm
oil drains quickly and completely.
Place the engine on a level surface, and place a suitable
container under the drain plug bolt.
Remove the oil filler cap (1), drain plug bolt (2), and drain
plug washer (3) to drain the oil into the suitable container.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is com-
patible with the environment. We suggest you take used
oil 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 pour it down a drain.
