CLEANING AND CHANGING FILTERS

ENGINE OIL FILTER
Using a filter wrench turn the filter
counterclockwise to remove it.
Lightly smear the rubber seal on the new
filter with oil, turn it clockwise
until the seal contacts the base and then turn it
another 2/3 turn to tighten it.
Some operators have found that when they fill up with the correct amount of oil ,the
level on the dipstick is too high due to the fact that it takes a while for the
oil to run into the final drives.
Opening the Vent plugs helps to speed this up.
