Put the product on level ground.
Remove the oil tank cap with the attached dipstick.
Clean the oil from the dipstick.
Put the dipstick fully into the oil tank to give a correct picture of the oil level.

Examine the oil level on the dipstick.
If the oil level is low, fill with engine oil and do a check of the oil level again.
Check the oil every time you use the mower. Tough conditions such as wet grass, heavy dust, high temperatures and rough or hilly terrain, may increase the frequency of required oil changes.
