ENGINE OIL ______________________________________________________________
Check the engine oil at the start of each day before
starting the engine.
To check the engine oil remove the dipstick and wipe it
with a clean rag. Reinsert the dipstick until it contacts the
oil tube. Remove the dipstick and read the oil level.
The oil level should always be between the ADD and
FULL mark on the dipstick. If oil level is below the ADD
mark remove the filler cap and add oil to bring the level
up between marks. Do Not Overfill.
NOTE: If the engine has recently been running allow time
(with engine turned off) to let the oil settle to obtain an
accurate oil level reading.
Diesel Engine: Use only engine oils with API
classification CD or CE.
Gas Engine: Use only engine oils with API classification
SJ.
Using oil other than the service class listed or oil change
intervals longer than recommended could reduce engine
life. Damage to engine due to improper maintenance or
use of incorrect oil quality and/or viscosity is not covered
by the engine warranty.
Diesel Engine: Perform initial oil change after first 35
hours of operation and every 75 hours or two months
thereafter. See Engine Manual.
Gas Engine: Perform initial oil change after first 50 hours
of operation and every 100 hours or three months
thereafter. See Engine Manual.
Significant oil loss can damage the engine. Considerable
oil loss could be due to a loose or incorrectly installed
drain plug, cracked gaskets, or a loose oil filter.
Drain plugs are located beneath the engine in the oil pan.
Remove both plugs when changing the oil.
Check drain plugs and oil for metal chips that could
indicate engine damage. Immediately replace drain plugs
with damaged gasket surfaces.
After oil has completely drained clean excess oil from oil
pan and drain plugs. Install drain plugs and tighten
securely. Refer to Engine Manual for proper torque.
Always replace the engine oil filter when changing the
engine oil. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the rubber
gasket surface of new filter before installing.
Diesel Engine: Fill Kubota engine with approximately 5.4
qts. (5.1 l) of clean engine oil. Check oil level and add
additional oil if required.
Gas Engine: Fill Suzuki engine with approximately 3.6
qts. (3.4 l) of clean engine oil. Check oil level and add
additional oil if required.
