fuel and engine coolant. Consult the
local authorities or reclamation facility.
• NEVER dispose of hazardous
materials irresponsibly by dumping
them into a sewer, on the ground, or
into ground water or waterways.
• Failure to follow these procedures may
seriously harm the environment.
Note that a typical fuel tank is illustrated.

water and dirt flows out. Reinstall and tighten
the drain plug firmly.
5. Reinstall the fuel cap.

Replace Engine Oil and Engine Oil Filter
CAUTION
• Only use the engine oil specified.
Other engine oils may affect warranty
coverage, cause internal engine
components to seize and / or shorten
engine life.
• Prevent dirt and debris from
contaminating the engine oil. Carefully
clean the oil cap / dipstick and the
surrounding area before you remove
the cap.
• NEVER mix different types of engine
oil. This may adversely affect the
lubricating properties of the engine oil.
• NEVER overfill. Overfilling may result
in white exhaust smoke, engine
overspeed or internal damage.
