Hi there,
Check the level first, if it is just over the mark that is not a problem, but if it is well above the full mark you will have to drain some from the sump, there is a drain plug that will unscrew at the bottom of the engine sump, drain out the excess oil and replace the sump washer as well, best to drain the lot and start again, you can use the old oil, just make sure that you use a clean drain tray.
