Using the clear plastic tube included with you mower, place it over the end of the drain valve located on the left side of your engine.

Place the other end of the tube thru the 2" diameter hole on the left side of the rear deck.

Be sure container is located under this area of the mower.

Using a 10 mm wrench, turn the hex head on the oil valve counter clockwise until the oil is draining out of the tube.

After the oil has drained, turn the hex head clockwise until it is tight (do not over tighten).

Remove the plastic tube from the valve, clean excess oil off of tube and store in a safe place for the next use.

Refill engine with oil through the oil dipstick tube. Pour slowly. Do not overfill.
