WARNING!
Working with or approaching a running engine is a
safety risk. Watch out for rotating components and hot
surfaces.
1 Run the engine until warm so that the oil is easier
to pump. Then stop the engine.
2 Remove the plug (1) from the oil pan and connect
an oil drain pump. Pump out the oil.
3 Replace the oil filter and by-pass filter at every oil
change; refer to the Oil Filter/By-pass Filter,
Change section.
4 Fill oil to the correct level vial the filler opening on
the side of the engine; refer to the Technical Data,
Lubrication System section for oil quantity.
IMPORTANT:
Do not fill up above the maximum oil level. Only use
a recommended grade of oil.
5 Start the engine and let it idle. Check that the low
oil pressure warning lamp goes out and that no
leaks are present at the filters.
6 Stop the engine. Wait a few minutes before
checking the oil level. Top up as needed.
Hand the old oil in to a re-cycling station.
