Dispose of All Petroleum Based Oils and
Fluids Properly
Physical contact with used motor oil may pose a health risk.
Wipe oil from your hands promptly and wash off any remaining
residue.
Used motor oil is an environmental contaminant and may only
be disposed of at approved collection facilities. To prevent
pollution of the environment, always do the following:
• Never dump waste oil in a sewer system, rivers, etc.
• Always put oil drained from your machine in
containers. Never drain oil directly onto the ground.
• Obey appropriate laws and regulations when
disposing of harmful materials such as oil, fuel,
solvent, filters, and batteries.
Check Tire Pressure and Condition
Maintain tire pressure but do not overinflate. Inspect tires and
wheels daily. When inflating tires, follow procedures in
Maintenance Section, which include using an extension to allow
you to avoid standing in front of or over a tire. Do not change a
tire unless you have both experience and proper equipment.
NOTE: Refer to “Recommended Air Pressure” on page 4-84
