Changing the Engine Oil Filter

Note: Change the engine oil filter more frequently
when operating conditions are extremely dusty or sandy.
1. Drain the oil from the engine; refer to Changing the
Engine Oil.
2. Place a rag under the oil filter to soak up any spilled
oil.
Important: Spilled oil may drain under the
engine and onto the clutch. Oil spilled on the
clutch may damage the clutch, cause the blades
to stop slowly when the clutch is switched off
and cause the clutch to slip when the clutch is
switched on. Wipe up any spilled oil.
