I need to change oil in this unit and I can't for the life of me determine how to remove
the oil sump plug.

It's the nut(?) at the bottom of the sump.

3/8 Drive extension should fit the square hole to remove the drain plug. when you get the plug out it would be a good idea to screw a short piece of pipe in there with a cap on the end, to prevent oil from going all over the mower on the next oil change.

And remember to change the oil with the engine warm.

A 3/8 drive ratchet ( the thing you put a socket on)

The extension for use on a 3/8 ratchet wrench. the square end fits the square hole in the drain plug.

Thanks, my friend....it was a 1/4 incher that did it.

Sears gave no clue in the manual as to how to do it.
