located next to the radiator
hose and below the
engine air cleaner/filter

1. After removing the engine air cleaner/filter assembly

to reach the transaxle fluid cap, turn the cap
counterclockwise to remove. Pull out the dipstick
and wipe it with a clean rag or paper towel.

2. Push it back in all the way, wait three seconds, and

then pull it back out again.

3. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the

lower level. The fluid level must be in the
cross-hatched area.

4. If the fluid level is in the acceptable range, push the

dipstick back in all the way and turn the handle
clockwise. Reinstall the engine air cleaner/filter
assembly.
