Changing/Draining Oil
1.
Start the engine and let it run five minutes. This
warms the oil so it drains better.
2.
Park the machine so that the drain side is slightly
lower than the opposite side to assure the oil
drains completely. Then disengage the power
take off (PTO), set the parking brake, and turn
the ignition key to "OFF" to stop the engine.
Remove the key.
3.
Place a pan below the oil drain. Use either a flat
screw driver, 3/8" wrench or 10mm wrench to
open valve (Fig. 28).
4.
Rotate valve end clockwise to close valve.
Rotate valve end counterclockwise to open valve
(Fig. 28).
5.
When oil has drained completely, close the drain
valve (Fig. 28).
Note:
Dispose of the used oil at a certified
recycling center.
