Information
Check the oil level once a day. We recommend checking it before starting
the engine. After stopping a warm engine, wait at least 5 minutes before
checking.
NOTICE
In order to avoid engine damage, use the oil quantity and grade specified
in the fluids and lubricants table.
► The oil level must be between the MAX and MIN marks.
► Use only the specified engine oil (refill with the same engine oil).
► Have the oil changed only by a Wacker Neuson service center.
NOTICE
In order to avoid engine damage, add the engine oil slowly so it can go
down without entering the intake system.
