12.1 Oil change
1
Keep the engine running during 5 to 10 minutes so the oil can reach some
temperature and reduce its viscosity (more liquid). This way it will be easier to
extract it completely.
2
Place an appropriate container under the oil draining hole to collect the used oil.
3
Unscrew the oil draining screw by turning counter clockwise; keep the screw
and its joint.
4
Release the oil filling plug so the engine cans intake air and achieve faster
draining.
5
Check fuel selector is OFF and turn the engine by pulling the starter rope gently,
causing most of the oil lodged in the moving parts of the engine to fall.
5
Once all of the oil has been extracted, place the draining screw again with its
joint and clean oil spillage, if any.
6
Refill with the recommended oil to the maximum level, without exceeding it. If
the machine is leveled, the oil should not exceed the level. (Check chapter 4.4 of
this user manual for the oil type).
