Engine Oil Change
To change the engine oil, put the tractor on level ground and stop the
engine. Change the engine oil as follows:
NOTE:
For best results change the oil while the engine is still warm.
1. Remove the oil pan drain plug and drain the oil from the engine.
2. See Engine Oil Filter in this manual, if the filter is to be changed.
3. Install the drain plug in the oil pan. Tighten the plug to a torque of 50
to 60 Nm (36 to 43 lb ft).
4. Put the correct type and amount of new oil into the engine. See
Engine Oil Selection in this manual for recommended oil type.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use the oil level dipstick as a guide when you fill
the engine crankcase with oil. Always measure the amount of oil you
install.
5. Start the engine. Operate the engine for five minutes at 1200 rpm.
Check for oil leaks at the filter base and drain plug.
6. Stop the engine. Wait approximately five minutes for the oil to return
to the oil pan. Check the oil level on the dipstick and add oil if
needed.
