CAUTION: OIL BEING DRAINED MAY BE HOT.
REDUCE THE RISK OF BURN INJURY, HANDLE WITH
CARE. DISPOSE OF USED OIL PROPERLY.
4. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain
bolt and new washer, and tighten the drain bolt securely.
Dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the
environment.We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container
to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation.
Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground, or down a
drain.
5. With the engine in a level position, fill to the upper limit mark on
the dipstick with the recommended oil.
NOTE: Running the engine with a low oil level can cause en-
gine damage.
The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically
stop the engine before the oil level falls below the safe
limit. However, to avoid the inconvenience of an unex-
pected shutdown, fill to the upper limit, and check the oil
level regularly.
6. Reinstall the filler cap and dipstick securely. (Fig. 6)
