It also notes the 200-hour/annual change interval. Best for owners doing their own maintenance who want exact steps and part numbers.
Posted by Kevin of the Naples Lawn Service channel, an owner sharing a practical DIY maintenance procedure rather than a dealer sales pitch.
Plus-50 15W40, the oil recommended in the owner's manual, filled to about four and a half quarts.
M806419, which is smaller than the original Yanmar filter that comes on the engine from the factory.
Every 200 hours or once a year, whichever comes first.
A small filter grabber tool from the auto parts store, hooked onto a three-eighths ratchet, works better than other oil filter wrenches.
