GENERAL INFORMATION
Lubrication is an essential part of preventive maintenance, affecting to a great extent the useful life of the unit. Different lubricants
are needed and some components in the unit require more frequent lubrication than others.
Specific recommendations of brand and grade of lubricants are not made here due to regional availability, operating conditions,
and the continual development of improved products. Where questions arise, refer to the requirements and specifications in
the engine manufacturer's manual.
All oil levels are to be checked with the machine parked on a level surface, and while the oil is cold, unless otherwise specified.
