Engine Oil
WARNING
To avoid personal injury:
8
Be sure to stop the engine
before checking and changing
the engine oil and the oil filter
cartridge.

DO NOT touch muffler or exhaust
pipes while they are hot; severe
burns could result. Always stop
the engine and allow it to cool
before conducting inspections,
maintenance, or cleaning.
8
Contact with engine oil can
damage your skin.
Put on gloves when handling
engine oil. If you come in
contact with engine oil, wash it
off immediately.
TIP
8
Be sure to check the engine oil on a level surface.
If placed on gradients, oil quantity can not be
measured accurately.
NOTICE

Do not operate a diesel engine
when engine oil is overfilled.
This can effect the air intake
system which could result in
engine damage or malfunction.
Checking oil level and adding engine oil
1. Check the engine oil level before starting or more
than 5 minutes after stopping the engine.
2. Remove the oil level gauge, wipe it clean and
reinstall it.
3. Take the oil level gauge out again, and check the
oil level.
(1) Oil port
(2) Oil level gauge
[Lower end of oil level gauge]
(A) Engine oil level within this
range is proper.
4. If the oil level is too low, remove the oil port, and
add new oil to the prescribed level.
5. After adding oil, wait more than 5 minutes and
check the oil level again. It takes some time for the
oil to drain down to the oil pan.
6. If the engine is operated with the oil level nearing
the lower limit, the oil may deteriorate more quickly
than normal, therefore, keeping the oil level near
the upper limit is recommended.
