The Shonk is correct, if you are at or above the full mark, drain a little out.

Yes been there done that the manual is incorrect. Two quarts with filter change will put you midway (1/2 +-) mark. You do not want the level at the top (full) mark. Because you will get oil “blow by” into the air box.

Thanks a bunch
p.s. Boy can she push the snow


I bought my V2650 last spring also. The oil gets changed every 500 miles max
I don&39;t push snow with my AC that&39;s for my JD AR (1948)

Ps I have 2,800 miles on the V2650 with no major issues
