HOURS (ONLY FOR NEW
MACHINES)
REPLACING THE ENGINE OIL AND THE
OIL FILTER
Stop the engine and allow the machine to
cool down before performing
maintenance.
• The engine, muffler, radiator, hydraulic
lines, sliding parts and many other parts
of the machine are hot immediately after
the engine is stopped. Touching these
parts will cause burns.
• The engine oil is also hot.
Be careful not to touch the hydraulic oil
when loosening the cap or plug.
Working on the machine under these
conditions could result in burns or
injuries.
