Changing the Engine Oil
_
ARNING!
If the engine
has been recently
run, the
engine,
muffler
and surrounding
metal surfaces will
be hot and can cause burns to the skin. Exercise
caution
to avoid burns.
NOTE:The
oil filter should
be changed
at every oil change
interval.
To complete
an oil change, proceed
as follows:
1.
Run the engine for a short time to warm the engine oil. The
oil will flow more freely and carry away more impurities.
Use care to avoid burns from hot oil.
2.
Locate the oil drain port on the right side of the engine.
