Replacing engine oil and engine oil filter cartridge

•
Be sure to set the safety bars under the body
before starting works with the body raised.
•
Oil is hot immediately after operation. You may
get burnt if you touch oil. Start work after oil
has cooled down.
Place the machine on a flat and rigid ground and bring it
into the posture for replacing the engine oil filter. Stop the
engine.
Discharging engine oil
1. Remove the cover (1). Put the container just under the
drain plug (2) of the engine.
2. Clean the periphery of the filler port (3) to prevent
foreign matters from entering. Remove the filler port
cap.
3. Remove the drain plug slowly so that oil will not splash
on you. Discharge oil then.
4. Check drain oil. Contact IHI's sales service dealer if it
contains much metallic powder, foreign matters, etc.
5. Tighten the drain plug.
Replacing the filter cartridge
1. Remove the filter cartridge (5) with the filter wrench.
2. Clean the seal surface of the filter head, apply engine
oil thinly to the gasket surface of a new filter cartridge,
and screw the filter cartridge by hand until the gasket
contacts with the seal surface of the filter head.
3. Tighten the filter cartridge by one turn from this
condition with the filter wrench.
Filling engine oil
1. Fill engine oil through the filler port up to a point
between the H and L levels of the level gauge.
2. Keep the engine idling for a while, stop it, check the
engine oil level, and refill engine oil up to the specified
level.
3. Check the oil level 10 to 20 minutes later. Make sure
that no oil leaks and attach the cover, if the oil level is
correct.
