Engine Oil/Filter Change
Regular oil changes are necessary to maintain a
strong running engine. The normal interval between oil
changes is 500 hours or one year. Machines that are
operated under harsh conditions should have their oil
changed more frequently. ASV recommends oil change
intervals of 250 hours or every six months for these
machines. Harsh conditions may include: continuous
high load applications, operation in high temperatures
or abnormally dusty/dirty conditions.
To change the oil and filter:
1.
Start and run the engine for a few minutes to warm
the oil. Then turn the engine off before proceeding.
2.
Place a suitable container under the engine oil
drain plug to catch the used oil as it drains.
3.
Remove the belly pan beneath the engine.
(fig. 4-47)
4.
Then remove the drain plug from the oil pan and
allow the used oil to drain completely from the
engine. Make sure to use the correct size combi
nation/socket wrench to keep the drain plug in
reusable condition. (fig. 4-48)
5.
Remove the engine oil filter by hand or with strap if
necessary. (fig. 4-49)
6.
Once the filter has been removed, check to make
sure the rubber gasket has come off of the filter
head with the old filter. If it is not on the old filter,
check the filter head. If it is still on the filter head,
remove it prior to installing the new filter.
(fig. 4-50)
If the old filter gasket (A) is not removed from the
filter head and the new filter is installed on top of
it, an oil leak will result when the engine is started.
If unnoticed, the engine can run itself out of oil
causing engine failure.
7.
Prepare new filter for installation by rubbing fresh
oil on the exposed surface of the filter gasket.
8.
Thread the new filter onto the filter head. Tighten
the filter by hand as instructed by the label located
on the filter or filter box.
9.
Re-install the oil drain plug into the pan and tighten
to 50 +/- 10 lb ft.
