Maintenance and care
Periodic maintenance
If your engine and its fittings are to function reliably, periodic maintenance in accordance with the maintenance
schedule is required. Several of the points below cover the replacement of consumables such as oil and fuel fil-
ters etc.
To ensure continued trouble-free use of your engine, it is important always to use original spares. Always state
the type designation and serial number of your engine and its fittings when ordering parts.
Some operations require professional experience and special tools. Therefore, get authorized service personnel
to carry out more extensive work.
For further information, see under the heading “Maintenance” in accordance with the respective section in
“Technical Description”.

mary of what should be rec-
tified when carrying out the
