If your mower has a drain plug, it is usually found at the botom of the engine. (You'll have to look under the deck of the mower, and even clean away material and/or move the blade to find it.) If you cannot locate a drain plug, you can take off the filler cap (which may or may not have a dip stick) and then turn machine up side down or on its side. The oil will then drain out of the filler cap.
