at least every 5000 miles.
To drain the clutch, crank the engine by hand until the oil filler plug "A" on
the front side of the flywheel is visible through the timing inspection hole.
Remove the plug and turn engine slowly to allow lubricant to drain. Bring
plug hole back to opening and insert new lubricant. Replace the drain plug
securely.

Starting Motor
Use Engine Oil
Three or four drops of light engine oil
at points "A" and "B" in the illustration
every 1000 miles.
The oil cups on the starting motor have
been made small to prevent over lubrica-
tion, which might find its way to the
windings or commutator and eventually
cause failure of the unit. Do not attempt
to supply more oil than is required to fill
the cups once.
Clutch
Use 1/6 Pint of Light Engine Oil
and 1/6 Pint of Kerosene
The clutch lubricant is sealed into the
clutch and supplies the driving surfaces
as well as the throwout bearing with oil.
The life of the lubricant is largely depen-
dent on the usage of the clutch. Harsh clutch
action indicates the need of fresh oil and the
clutch should be promptly inspected by
your Hudson dealer if this condition devel-
ops. In any event the oil should be changed
