Changing Engine Oil - Kubota D1005-E4BG Operator's Manual

4. If the oil level is too low, remove the oil filler plug, and
add new oil to the prescribed level.
5. After adding oil, wait more than 5 minutes and check
the oil level again. It takes some time for the oil to
drain down to the oil pan.
6. If the engine is operated with the oil level nearing the
lower limit, however, oil may deteriorate quickly;
keeping the oil level near the upper limit is thus
recommended.
