MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Oil System
Oil and Filter Change
Maintain the engine oil at the proper level to ensure a properly
functioning engine, and change the oil and oil filter in accordance with
the Periodic Maintenance Schedule. Dirt and metal particles collect in
the oil, and oil loses its lubricative quality if used too long.
The recommended oil change interval is 100 hours or every six
months, whichever comes first. Suggested break-in oil change is at 25
hours, or one month, whichever comes first. Severe use operation
requires more frequent service. Severe use includes continuous duty in
dusty or wet conditions, and cold weather operation. NOTE: Severe
use/cold weather operation is when all operating is at below 10° F.
and/or when operating between 10° F and 30°F if most trips are slow
speed and less than five miles. Always change the oil filter when
changing oil.
PROCEDURE:
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Clean the area around the drain plug at the bottom of the oil tank.
3. Run the engine for two to three minutes until warm. Turn engine
off.
4. Place a drain pan beneath the oil tank and remove the drain plug.
Oil may be hot. Do not allow hot oil to come into contact with skin.
Serious burns may result.
5. Allow oil to drain completely.
6. Install a new sealing washer (PN 5850135) on oil drain plug.
NOTE: The sealing surfaces on the drain plug and the oil tank
should be clean and free of burrs, nicks or scratches.
7. Reinstall drain plug and torque to 14-17 ft. lbs. (1.93-2.35 kg/m).
