Servicing The Engine Oil - Toro 22323G Operator's Manual

Ensure that the cover is seated correctly and seals
with the air cleaner body.
•
If the service indicator is red, replace the air filter
as described in Replacing the Filters.
Replacing the Filters
1. Gently slide the primary filter out of the air cleaner
body (Figure 33). Avoid knocking the filter into the
side of the body.
Important: Do not attempt to clean the primary
filter.
2. Remove the safety filter only if you intend to replace it.
Important: Never attempt to clean the safety
filter. If the safety filter is dirty, then the primary
filter is damaged and you should replace both
filters.
3. Inspect the new filter(s) for damage by looking into
the filter while shining a bright light on the outside of
the filter. Holes in the filter will appear as bright spots.
Inspect the element for tears, an oily film, or damage to
the rubber seal. If the filter is damaged do not use it.
4. If you are replacing the safety filter, carefully slide the
new filter into the filter body (Figure 33).
Important: To prevent engine damage, always
operate the engine with both air filters and cover
installed.
5. Carefully slide the primary filter over the safety filter
(Figure 33). Ensure that it is fully seated by pushing on
the outer rim of the filter while installing it.
Important: Do not press on the soft inside area
of the filter.
6. Install the air cleaner cover with the side indicated as
UP facing up and secure the latches (Figure 33).
7. Close the hood.

Servicing the Engine Oil

Changing the Oil
1. Start the engine and let it run for five minutes. This
warms the oil so it drains better.
2. Park the traction unit so that the drain side is slightly
lower than the opposite side to ensure that the oil
drains completely.
3. Lower the loader arms, set the parking brake, stop the
engine, and remove the key.
CAUTION
Components will be hot if the traction unit has
been running. If you touch hot components
you may be burned.
Allow the traction unit to cool before
performing maintenance or touching
components under the hood.
4. Remove the drain plug (Figure 35).
