ENGINE OIL CHANGE

Drain the oil in the engine while the engine is warm.
Warm oil drains quickly and completely.
Place the engine on a level surface, and place a
suitable container under the drain plug bolt.
Remove the oil filler cap (1), drain plug bolt (2), and
drain plug washer (3) to drain the oil into the suitable
container.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is
compatible with the environment. We suggest you take
used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling
center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it
in the trash, pour it on the ground, or pour it down a
drain.
Used engine oil contains substances that have
been identified as carcinogenic. If repeatedly left in
contact with the skin for prolonged periods, it may
cause skin cancer. Wash your hands thoroughly
with soap and water as soon as possible after con-
tact with used engine oil.
Install a new drain plug washer (3) and tighten the drain
plug bolt (2) to the specified torque.
