Changing Engine Oil
Drain oil with engine shut off, but with engine oil still warm.
1.
Remove drain screw (A).
2.
While crankcase is draining, replace filter element.
3.
Re-install drain plug and tighten to 50 N·m (37 lb-ft). Use new seal ring.
4.
Fill crankcase with fresh oil of proper viscosity at filler neck (B). See section "Fuel, Lubricants, Hydraulic Oil and Coolant". With filter, capacity is approx. 19.5 liters (5.2 U.S. gal.).
5.
Wait 15 minutes then check oil level. Oil should be up to the "XXX" marks on the dipstick. Top up with oil, if necessary.
6.
Run engine for a short time and check for leaks at filter base and drain screw.
7.
Stop engine.
IMPORTANT:
Change oil whenever a seasonal change in temperature makes oil of a different viscosity necessary.
NOTE:
Carry out first oil change after first 100 hours of operation.
