NOTE: Make sure to push dipstick all the way in to check oil level.

1. Park tractor on level ground, place transmission in park, turn off engine and remove key.

2. Pull out dipstick (A). Oil level should be between two marks on dipstick.

3. If level is low, add oil through oil filler hole (B) until even with upper mark. DO NOT overfill. Use seasonal viscosity grade oil. (See Fuel, Lubricants and Coolant section.)
