My father recently passed away so I'm going at this blindly and could use some help. As stated it's a cub cadet Tank M60 and I need to know how to change the oil in these darn zero turns. I live in a neighborhood with a tiny yard compared to my father's property so I'm way out of the loop of the newer bigger mowers. I just need to know the easiest way to drain the oil (where's the drain plug?), the volume and type of motor oil, and oil filter. I'm not completely mechanically stupid but I just need a couple steps in the right direction and I should be good to go.

Thank you very much!

Up until 2011, they (Kohler) said to use only 10W30 because of the lifters. Then they changed, and said to use 10W30 or 30W. Kohler oil of Corse.
I stick with 10W30.

Page 1.8 of the manual Mike1 post shows the location of the drain plug. Kohler now recommends 10W-30 for all their small engines.
