Changing Engine Oil and Filter

IMPORTANT: Operating in extreme conditions may require more frequent service intervals:

• Engine components may become dirty or plugged when operating in extreme heat, dust, or other severe conditions.

• Engine oil can degrade if machine is operated constantly at slow or low engine speeds or for frequent short periods of time.

  1. Run engine to warm oil.

  2. Park machine safely on level surface. (See Parking Safely in the SAFETY section.)

  3. IMPORTANT: Dirt and contamination can enter engine when checking oil level. Clean area around dipstick before loosening or removing.

    Clean area around dipstick to prevent debris from falling into crankcase.
