Changing The Oil - Scania PDE Operator's Manual

Changing the oil

Note:
Renew the oil filter and clean the centrifugal oil
cleaner when changing oil.
WARNING!
Hot oil can cause burns and skin irritation. Wear
protective gloves and goggles when changing
hot oil.
Make sure that there is no pressure in the lubri-
cation system before starting work on it.
The oil filler cap must always be in place when
starting and running the engine to prevent oil be-
ing ejected.
Environment
Use a container to avoid spillage. Used oil must
be disposed of as specified in national and inter-
national law.
Note:
Change oil more often if the engine is subjected
to particularly demanding operation, such as a
dusty environment, or if deposits in the centrifu-
gal oil cleaner are thicker than 28 mm (1.1 in).

In certain engines the oil is pumped out by

2.
Clean the magnet on the oil plug.
3.
Refit the oil plug.
