Checking Engine Crankcase Oil Level

To prevent interruption of lubrication oil circulation when the engine is in an inclined position, never allow oil to drop below minimum oil level.

IMPORTANT: Correct level of engine oil is indispensable for long engine service life. Check oil level with forage harvester standing on level ground.

Before removing dipstick, clean surrounding area thoroughly.

Check engine crankcase oil level after every 10 hours of operation.

Oil level should be between upper and lower marks on dipstick.
