As required, recover the bodyshell floor pan, coated with

VEHICLE LUBRICATION
Long and failure-free motor vehicle work mainly depends
on the timely change of oil and grease in units and assemblies.
It is strongly recommended to follow the instructions of this
manual and the lubrication service Manual. The grease names
are indicated in the lubricants and fluids table (see Annex 3).
It is not permitted to use oils and greases not indicated in the
table, and to break greasing intervals.
Methods of assembly lubrication and grease change are
described in the corresponding manual sections.
Within 24 hours after fording, check oil in all units. If water is
detected in the oil, change the oil in this unit and grease all the
lubrication nipples of the chassis until the fresh grease squeezes
out.
While greasing, follow these rules:
1. Drain oil from the engine and the transmission units
immediately after the motor vehicle stops while the units are
warmed up.
2. Thoroughly remove dirt from the lubrication nipples and
plugs before greasing to avoid dirt getting into the motor vehicle
mechanisms.
3. Thoroughly remove escaped grease from all the details
after lubrication.
4. If the housings of the engine and the transmission units
contain excessively dirty oil or the oil contains metal particles,
wash the housings before filling fresh oil.
5. It is not permitted to mix the engine oils of different brands
or of different manufacturers.
When changing the oil brand or manufacturer, wash the
engine lubrication system.
6. Mixing "Litol-24" grease with "Lita" substituting grease is
allowed in any proportions. When using other substitutes wash
the unit with kerosene.
7. Mixing of the following brake fluids is allowed in any
proportions: "Rosa", "Rosa-3", "RosDot", "Tom", "Rosa Dot-4".
