2007 Gasoline Utility Vehicle Owner’s Manual

Page 29

ENGINE OIL

Even though the low oil warning light on the dash should illuminate if oil level becomes low, engine oil level
should be checked monthly. Vehicle should be on a level surface when checking oil. Do not overfill with oil.

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER CHANGE

Engine oil and oil filter should be changed after the first 100 hours of operation. After that, they should be
changed every 200 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first.

1. Turn the key switch to the OFF position, then remove the key. Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the

neutral POSITION. Chock the front wheels.

2. Access the engine compartment.

3. Disconnect the battery cables, negative (–) cable first. 

See WARNING “To avoid unintentionally start-

ing...” on page 10.

4. Position a pan designed for oil changes under the front drain plug 

(Figure 15)

5. Use a 14 mm socket or wrench to remove the drain plug, turning it counterclockwise, and allow the

engine oil to drain into the pan. 

See following WARNING.

ý 

WARNING

• Do not attempt to change engine oil when the engine is hot or even warm. Engine oil can

cause skin burns.

• Wear safety glasses or approved eye protection when servicing the vehicle. Wear rubber

gloves when handling oil drain plug, oil filter, and oil drain pan. 

6. Clean the oil drain plug threads with solvent to remove oil and oil residue. Make sure that the compres-

sion washer remains on the drain plug.
