Changing Engine Oil and Filter

Run engine to warm oil. Park machine safely on level surface. Lift hood. Put drain pan under drain valve. If available, install drain hose. Open drain valve and drain oil into oil drain pan. Allow oil to drain completely. Remove dip stick. Wipe dirt from around oil filter. Place a drain pan or funnel under filter tray. Remove old filter and wipe off filter tray. Put a light coat of fresh, clean oil on the filter gasket. Install replacement oil filter by turning oil filter to the right (clockwise) until the rubber gasket contacts filter base. Tighten filter an additional one-half turn. Close drain valve. Add oil. Install and tighten dipstick. Start and run engine at idle to check for leaks. Stop engine. Fix any leaks before operating. Check oil level, add oil if necessary.
