oil change on rotavator
« on: May 24, 2009, 20:58 »
Hubby has an alko farmer 500( i think) and he wants to change the oil, i have looked at the instructions and it says you have to tip it over but he is convinced there must be a drainage plug some where.

does anybody know?

I've no doubt that the drain plug is under the engine, right where you can't see or get to it.
Just pull the egine over untill it's on a compression stroke, and go by the manual. :)

I've got a Alko Farmer 5000R and the only way you can change the oil is to tip it. Bit of a pain, but the only way you can get to the sump plug is to take the engine off  ???
