# How to Drain Oil From My Troy-Bilt Garden Tractor
Troy Bilt is a company that was started in 1937 and produced the first garden rototiller, according to the company website. Gradually, they added new products and today, the product line includes mowers, trimmers, chainsaws, snow throwers, pressure washers and garden tractors. Troy Bilt garden tractors are designed to cut larger lawns, sports fields, and commercial or industrial properties. The tractors run like any other motorized vehicle, and require maintenance like oil changes from time to time. You can change the oil in your tractor using the oil drain hose that was provided with the unit.
