NOTICE
Perkins oil filters are built to Perkins specifications.
Use of an oil filter not recommended by Perkins could
result in severe engine damage to the engine bear-
ings, crankshaft, etc., as a result of the larger waste
particles from unfiltered oil entering the engine lubri-
cating system. Only use oil filters recommended by
Perkins.
1. Remove the oil filter (1) with a suitable tool.

NOTICE
Do not fill the oil filters with oil before installing them.
This oil would not be filtered and could be contami-
nated. Contaminated oil can cause accelerated wear
to engine components or engine damage.
4. Install the new oil filter (1) Tighten the oil filter until
the oil filter seal contacts the cylinder block or the
oil cooler. Tighten the oil filter by hand according to
the instructions that are shown on the oil filter. Do

Fill the Engine Crankcase
1. Remove the oil filler cap. Refer to the Operation
and Maintenance Manual for more information on
lubricant specifications. Fill the crankcase with the
correct amount of oil. Refer to the Operation and
Maintenance Manual for more information on refill
capacities.
If equipped with an auxiliary oil filter system or a re-
mote oil filter system, follow the OEM or filter manu-
facturer's
overfilling the crankcase with oil can cause engine
damage.
To prevent crankshaft bearing damage, crank the en-
gine with the fuel OFF. This will fill the oil filters before
starting the engine. Do not crank the engine for more
than 30 seconds.
2. Start the engine and run the engine at "LOW IDLE"
for 2 minutes. Perform this procedure to ensure
that the lubrication system has oil and that the oil
filters are filled. Inspect the oil filter for oil leaks.
3. Stop the engine and allow the oil to drain back to
the sump for a minimum of 10 minutes.
