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.
• Before performing maintenance on top
of the work bench, clean the footing and
observe the following precautions to
prevent falling.
· Do not spill oil or grease.
· Do not leave tools scattered around.
· Watch your step when walking.
• Never jump down from the machine or
the work bench. When getting on or off
the machine or work bench, use the
steps, handrails or work bench to
support your body. Your weight should
be evenly distributed among the three
contact points (one hand and two feet
or two hands and one foot).
• Do not stand on the dozer blade and
perform maintenance work. Doing so is
dangerous because of the unsteady
foothold. Use the work bench.

filler cap (2).
The oil fill hole of the dipstick (1) can be
removed for replenishing.
2. Loosen the bolts and remove the under

3. Place a pan for catching the waste oil
under the drain plug (4).

IMPORTANT: Check the waste oil for
metal powder. If it contains large amounts
of metal powder, consult your sales or
service dealer.
