tip the mower up, spark plug up, secure it where it won't fall on you. and remove the spark plug wire to prevent an accidental start. most of those engines have a square plug that fit a 3/8" ratchet drive. some of those you have to drain it out of the dipstick tube.

Briggs for the most part eliminated the bottom drain plug on push mower engines a few years back. Either have to tip it on it side to drain out of the dipstick tube or use an oil vacuum. Imagine having to tip a tiller on its side to drain the oil. Actually happened.
