How to change the engine oil and filters

1 Place a container with a capacity of 250 litres (35 gal) under the sump drain plug.
2 Remove the sump drain plug and allow the oil to drain into the container.
3 Place a container with a capacity of 5 litres (1 gal) under the filters to catch the oil which will be released as
they are removed.
4 Remove the oil filters using a strap wrench, turning the filter anti-clockwise (A).
5 Clean the sealing faces and the threaded bosses of the oil filter header.
6 Lightly lubricate the sealing ring of the new filters with engine oil.
7 Screw each filter up to the header using firm hand pressure.
8 Refit the sump drain plug and refill the engine with the correct grade of lubricating oil as given in "Lubricating
oil recommendations" on page 42.
Caution: Use the oil priming sequence before the engine is run, see the OEM Application, Installation and
Commissioning Manual (TSL 4232).
