Draining the Engine Oil
1.
Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes.
Note:
This warms the oil so it drains better.
2.
Park the machine on a level surface, disengage
the blade-control switch (PTO), and engage the
parking brake.
3.
Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.

Note:
Dispose of the used oil at a recycling
