use:
1. Stop the engine and allow oil to drain into the crankcase.
2. Place the unit on a flat, level surface to get a proper oil level
reading.
3. Keep dirt, grass clippings and other debris out of the engine.
Clean the area around the oil fill plug/dipstick before removing
it.
4. Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick and wipe off oil. Reinsert it all
the way back in.
5. Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick and check the oil level. Oil should
SEE be up to the top of the dipstick (Fig. 19).
