CARE AND MAINTENANCE

A CAUTION HOT oil may cause burns. Allow engine to cool before

draining oil.

CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL:

the left side of the engine crankcase on the

2. Place a suitable container under the drain

valve. The fitting of a short piece of hose to
the valve will help direct the oil.

3. Push the valve body in and twist to clear the

detent notch.

4. Puffing the valve body outward will start the

flow of oil.

NOTE: Refer to engine manufacturers

recommendations for frequency of oil
changes.
