Do not overtighten the oil filter.
Fill the Engine Crankcase
1.
Remove the oil filler cap. Refer to the Operation
and Maintenance Manual for more information on
lubricant specifications. Fill the crankcase with the
correct amount of oil. Refer to the Operation and
Maintenance Manual for more information on refill
capacities.
NOTICE
If equipped with an auxiliary oil filter system or a re-
mote oil filter system, follow the OEM or filter manu-
facturer's
recommendations.
Under
filling
or
overfilling the crankcase with oil can cause engine
damage.
NOTICE
To prevent crankshaft bearing damage, crank the en-
gine with the fuel OFF. This will fill the oil filters before
starting the engine. Do not crank the engine for more
than 30 seconds.
2.
Start the engine and run the engine at
“
LOW IDLE
”
for 2 minutes. Perform this procedure to ensure
that the lubrication system has oil and that the oil
filters are filled. Inspect the oil filter for oil leaks.

Check
Ensure that the engine cannot be started while
this maintenance is being performed. To help pre-
vent possible injury, do not use the starting motor
to turn the flywheel.
Hot engine components can cause burns. Allow
additional time for the engine to cool before
measuring/adjusting valve lash clearance.
NOTICE
Only qualified service personnel should perform this
maintenance.
Operation of the engines with incorrect valve lash
can reduce engine efficiency, and also reduce engine
component life.
This maintenance is recommended as part of a
lubrication and preventive maintenance schedule in
order to help provide maximum engine life. The
maintenance for the valve lash is important in order
to keep the engine compliant.
Ensure that the engine is stopped before measuring
the valve lash. The engine valve lash can be
inspected and adjusted when the engine is cold.
