A - Drain plug

B - Oil filler cap

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.

Drain oil with engine shut off, but with engine oil still warm.

1. Unscrew drain plug (A).

2. While crankcase is draining, replace filter element.

3. Re-install drain plug and tighten to 50 Nm (37 lb-ft). Use a new seal ring.

4. Fill crankcase with fresh oil of proper viscosity at filler neck (B). See section "Fuel, Lubricants, Hydraulic Oil and Coolant". Capacity is approx. 15.5 liters (4.1 U.S.gal.).

5. Check oil level. Oil should be up to the top mark on the dipstick. Fill to proper level, if necessary.

6. Run engine for a short time and check for leaks at filter base and drain plug.

7. Shut off engine.

8. Check oil level once again. It must be up to the top mark on the dipstick.
