2 Check the engine oil level two times each day. Higher than normal oil use can occur during the first 50
hours.
3 Change the engine oil and oil filter after the first 50 hours of operation.
4 Check the alternator belt.
5 Refer to the Engine manual for specified maintenance intervals.If the injection pump, injectors or the
fuel system need service, contact your Jacobsen Dealer.
