Check with your local authorities, service center, or dealer for safe disposal/recycling facilities. With engine off but still warm, disconnect the spark plug wire (A) and keep it away from the spark plug (Figure 7). After the oil has drained, install and tighten the oil drain plug. All models are equipped with an oil filter. Before installing the new oil filter, lightly lubricate the oil filter gasket with fresh, clean oil. Install the oil filter by hand until the gasket contacts the oil filter adapter, then tighten the oil filter 1/2 to 3/4 turns. As the engine warms up, check for oil leaks. Stop the engine and check the oil level. Engine parts, especially muffler, become extremely hot.

There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24 months. If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. the use of a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to maintain freshness.
