CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL (Figure 7)
Checktheengineoil level daily(10 hours).
The dipstick is marked on both sides for reading the oil
level with the engine stopped.
Before checking oil level, allow at least 10 minutes for
oil to return to sump after stopping engine.
Do not overfill. Use oils of the CD (DS Series 3) service
classification only. Use the following viscosities for
the lowest expected temperature during time oil will be
in crankcase.
DO NOT use multi-viscosity oils in this diesel engine.
(SeeSpecial Lubrication Information).

ENGINE FUEL SEDIMENT BOWL AND FILTER
(Figure 8)
The fuel system is equipped with a fuel shut-off valve,
a fuel sediment bowl and a fuel filter located at the
R.H. side of engine. SeeFigure8.
The purpose of the fuel shut-off valve is to stop flow of
fuel from tank when the sediment bowl or filter is re¬
moved or when fuel lines are removed.
The purpose of the sediment bowl is to filter out sedi¬
ment and water from the fuel before it enters the fuel
filter. Check the sediment bowl daily. If it contains
sediment or water close the fuel shut-off valve. Thor¬
oughly clean gasket and bowl and replace the parts in
the same position from which they were removed.
Before attempting to start the engine be sure to follow
the procedure for bleeding air from the fuel system
given below.
If dirt, sediment or water is found in filter bowl each
day, it indicates fuel is contaminated and method of
handling and storage of fuel should be improved. If fuel
is clean, very little sediment or water will be found in
the sediment bowl and cleaning period may be extend¬
ed accordingly.
The purpose of fuel filter is to remove sediment and
small abrasive particles from fuel before it enters and
damages fuel injection pump. On a new engine fuel
filter should be removed and replaced at first 50 hours.
Thereafter, filter should be changed yearly or at every
400 hours of operation. To replace filter:
