    Find the drain hole. It is located to the left of the crankcase, between the engine and the left wheel. 
    Then change the oil using the following algorithm: 
    1.Remove the crankcase cover by unscrewing the six bolts with a 10mm socket wrench.
    2.Use a wire brush to clean the box body and drain the hole from dirt.
    3.Place a container under the drain hole to collect the transmission fluid, which will pour out immediately after unscrewing the plug.
    4.Gently unscrew the lid with a square-tipped screwdriver, collect the waste in a container.
    5.Close the drain hole with the plug, replacing the rubber gasket with a new one.
    6.Pour 3-4 liters of fresh material through the test port using a hose with a funnel attached or a large syringe.
    7.Add lubricant until it flows out of the inspection hole. 
    Then install the plug and replace the crankcase guard.
