Changing the Engine Oil
1.
2.
Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
Disconnect the wire from the spark plug and ensure that
the wire does not contact the plug (Fig. 24).
Change the engine oil after the first 2 operating hours, after
every 25 operating hours, and at the end of the
snowthrowing season. If possible, run the engine just
before changing the oil because warm oil flows better and
carries more contaminants.
3.
Remove the 3 flange-head bolts that secure the belt
cover to the engine frame and slide the belt cover and
the cable cover up the cables (Fig. 5).

Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
