Hi as John said. Just run it it will burn off. Oil has got past the piston rings when you tipped it. A little bit of oil makes a lot of mess and a lot of smoke. Dont put washing up liquid in anywhere.

Just run the machine until the smoke clears, Mike - they all do it once the machine has been tipped. When the smoke has gone (takes 5 mins or so) check the oil level and forget all about it.
