engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size,
loosen the oil filler plug by turning it
counterclockwise and remove it with
your fingers.

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 and washer, screw
it in with your fingers and then tighten
securely with the wrench.
