SNAPPER replacement parts only. Contact a local
SNAPPER dealer for parts and service assistance.

3.2.1. CHANGE ENGINE OIL
WARNING
Before attempting any adjustments or repairs, STOP
the engine, remove the spark plug wire from the
spark plug and secure wire away from plug. Engine
oil is extremely hot and can cause severe burns.
Allow engine oil to cool before draining to prevent
injury.
1. Refer to Engine Manual for proper oil
specifications and procedures.
2. For simplest/cleanest oil change, loosen lower
handle wing nuts and stand mower up on lower
handle as shown in Figure 3.1. Drain oil through
dipstick tube into a container.
3.2.2. CHECK GREASE LEVEL IN TRANSMISSION
1. Remove transmission fill plug. See Figure 3.2.
2. Ifliquid grease IS NOT visible on the input gear (the
small gear below the plug hole), add an amount, to
cover gear, of Snapper "00" grease. See Figure 3.2.
