NOTICE
Perkins oil filters are built to Perkins specifications.
Use of an oil filter not recommended by Perkins could
result in severe engine damage to the engine bear-
ings, crankshaft, etc., as a result of the larger waste
particles from unfiltered oil entering the engine lubri-
cating system. Only use oil filters recommended by
Perkins.
1. Remove the oil filter with a suitable tool.
2. Clean the sealing mating surface on the engine
(1).

NOTICE
Do not fill the oil filters with oil before installing them.
This oil would not be filtered and could be contami-
nated. Contaminated oil can cause accelerated wear
to engine components or engine damage.
