Access the oil fill cap through the cargo box access panel.

NOTE: Make certain the dipstick is inserted all the
way into the dipstick tube to keep the depth of the
dipstick consistent.

oil level within the SAFE range on dipstick. Do not
overfill (see NOTE below).
Maintain Oil Level In SAFE Range
DO NOT Overfill the Engine
NOTE: A rising oil level between checks during cold
weather operation can indicate contaminants such
as gas or moisture collecting in the crankcase. If the
oil level is over the upper mark, change the oil
immediately.
