9.2.4 To replace the engine oil and the oil filter
If the engine is cold, start the engine for 1–2 minutes
before you drain the engine oil. This makes the engine
oil warm and easier to drain.
WARNING: Do not operate the engine for more
than 1–2 minutes before you drain the engine
oil. The engine oil becomes very hot and can
cause burn injuries. Let the engine become cool
before you drain the engine oil.
WARNING: If you spill engine oil on your body,
clean with soap and water.
1. Remove the engine cover.
2. Put a container below the oil drain plug.
3. Remove the dipstick.
4. Remove the oil drain plug from the engine.
5. Let the oil run out into the container.
6. Attach the oil drain plug and tighten it fully.
7. Turn the oil filter counterclockwise to remove it.
8. Lightly lubricate the rubber seal on the new oil filter
with new oil.
9. To attach the oil filter, turn it clockwise by hand until
the rubber seal is in position, then tighten a half turn
more.
