The parts and oil are at high temperature after the engine is stopped, and may cause serious burns. Wait
for the temperature to go down before starting the operation.
1. Open the engine hood on the machine.
2. Remove dipstick (G) and wipe the oil off with a cloth.
3. Insert dipstick (G) fully in the oil filler pipe, then take it out
again.
4. The oil level should be between the H and L marks on
dipstick (G).
If the oil level is below the L mark, add engine oil through
oil filler (F).
5. If the oil lever is above the H mark, remove undercover
(1), drain the excess engine oil from drain valve (P), then
check the oil level again.
6. If the oil level is correct, tighten the oil filler cap securely
and close the engine hood.

ated, wait for at least 15 minutes after stopping the engine
