Protec Engine Fluid E7 54480918 • Viscosity at 100°C (212°F): max. ±20% of original value of the fresh oil.
CHANGING THE OIL G400SIIIA Note: Renew the oil filter and clean the centrifugal Figure 29 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 lubrication system before starting work on it.
G500SIIIA G400SIIIA RENEWING THE OIL FILTER Figure 32 CAUTION Clean the centrifugal oil cleaner when renewing the oil filter. Otherwise, the oil filter will be blocked and resistance in the filter will increase. If this happens, an overflow valve in the filter retainer opens and lets the oil pass without being filtered.
