To change the oil in an MTD machine with part number 316-613E000-24, follow these steps:

1. Prepare the machine:
- Place the machine on a flat, level surface.
- Run the engine for a few minutes to warm up the oil (this helps it drain more easily).
- Turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire for safety.

2. Drain the oil:
- Locate the oil fill cap and oil drain plug.
- Place an oil drain pan under the drain plug.
- Remove the oil fill cap to allow air in.
- Remove the oil drain plug and let the oil drain completely into the pan.

3. Dispose of old oil:
- Once drained, replace and tighten the oil drain plug.
- Pour the used oil into a sealed container and take it to a recycling center.

4. Refill with fresh oil:
- Use the type and amount of oil specified in the operator’s manual (typically SAE 30 or 10W-30 for small engines).
- Pour new oil into the oil fill opening.
- Check the oil level with the dipstick or oil fill indicator and adjust if necessary. Do not overfill.

5. Finish up:
- Replace the oil fill cap securely.
- Reconnect the spark plug wire.
- Start the engine and let it run for a minute, then check for leaks and recheck the oil level, topping off if needed.

Always refer to the specific operator’s manual for exact oil type, capacity, and any model-specific instructions.
