If the engine has been recently run, the engine, muffler and surrounding
metal surfaces will be hot and can cause burns to the skin. Exercise caution
to avoid burns.
To complete the oil change, proceed as follows:
1.
Run the engine for a few minutes to allow the oil in the crankcase to warm.
Warm oil will flow more freely and carry away more of the engine sediment
which may have settled at the bottom of the crankcase. Use care to avoid
burns from hot oil.

Open the tractor's hood and locate the oil drain port on the left side of the
engine.
