Lubricant oil filter replacement
The filter must also be replaced when the lubricant oil is changed.
Only use filters with a filtering degree that is the same as the previous
one (see the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE chapter).
Only proceed with the engine stopped and at low temperature, in
order to avoid the risk of burning.
Place a container for collecting the spent oil under the filter
support (1).
Unscrew and remove the filter (3) from its relative support (1) by
suitable tool.
Replace the filter element and the sealing gasket (2) contained
inside the filter (3).
Carefully clean the surfaces of the support (1) in contact with the
sealing gasket (2).
Moisten the sealing gasket (2) of the new filter (3) with a thin layer
of engine oil.
Manually tighten the new filter (3) on the support (1) until it comes
into contact with the gasket (2). Additionally tighten it using a
specific tool to a torque of 20 ± 2 Nm.
Operate the engine for a few minutes and then check the oil level
using the dipstick. If necessary, top up to compensate for the
quantity of oil used to fill up the filtering cartridge.
Eliminate the consumables and any materials in
contact with them (for example, filters) in accordance
with current regulations.
The FPT Technical Service Network workshops are
equipped for this purpose.

Make sure that the oil dipstick is fully inserted and that
the oil filler cap is fully tightened in a clockwise
direction.
