regularly. In addition, the oil must be
changed and the oil filter cartridge re-
placed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance chart.

In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the crankcase.
To check the engine oil level
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Wait a few minutes until the oil lev-
el settles and with the vehicle on a
level surface, hold it upright for an
accurate reading.
3. Look at the check window located
at the bottom-right side of the
crankcase.
The engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
