drain the oil into a suitable container. Install a new sealing washer on the
oil drain plug and install the oil drain plug securely.
2. Fill the crankcase with the recommended oil (see page 9 ) and check
the oil level with the dipstick resting on the filler opening (do not screw
in). Fill to the upper level mark.

Used motor oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with
the skin for prolonged periods. Although this is unlikely unless you handle
used oil on a daily basis, it is still advisable to thoroughly wash your
hands with soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil.
NOTE:
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the
environment. We suggest you take it in a sealed container to your local oil
reclamation station. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground,
down a drain, or into the water.
