Place a container under the engine to collect the oil and a plastic sheet. Unscrew the oil cap on the reservoir pipe and let it drain completely.

Close the cap and fill the reservoir with new oil. Start the engine and top up the oil to the max mark. Do not dispose of used oil in the environment; take it to the appropriate collection centres.
