NOTE: Running the engine with a low level oil can cause engine damage.
The Low Oil Automatic Shutoff system will automatically stop the engine before the oil
level falls below safe limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of a shutdown, always
check the engine oil level before startup.
Engine Oil Change
Drain the used oil while the engine is still warm. Warm oil drains quickly and
completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil, and then remove the
filler cap/dipstick and then drain the plug.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, and then reinstall the drain plug, and tighten it
securely.
