Changing Engine Oil and Filter

1. 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.
   
   

   Run engine to warm oil.

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