DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
1. Using a wrench of the correct size,
loosen the oil filler plug by turning
it counterclockwise and remove it
with your fingers.
2. Use your finger or suitable tool to
feel inside the hole. The oil level
should be at its bottom edge. If it is
not, check for leaks before adding
oil. To refill the transaxle or bring
the oil level up, add oil slowly until
it reaches the proper level. Do not
overfill.
3. Replace the plug, screw it in with
your fingers and then tighten se-
curely with the wrench.
