1. Warm engine by running for a few minutes. (Refer to the
engine operator’s manual for oil and filter replacement

2. Remove the oil drain hose (D) from its storage position
and route the hose so that when the oil drain cap is

Using the appropriate tools, remove the oil drain cap from
the oil drain hose and drain the engine oil.

retained during normal operation.

(D). Remove the engine oil filter and replace with a new
one.
6. Add engine oil (refer to engine operator’s manual) in the
fill tube (E) and check the amount of oil in the engine
using the engine oil dipstick (F).
