500 HOUR MAIN SERVICE
WARNING: If you need to open the bonnet, follow the procedure indicated under "How to open the bonnet".
WARNING: Always use the specific PPE for the operation concerned.
WARNING:
Beware of burns caused by hot tractor and engine parts. [4.1.n]
For the engine, it is necessary to use an oil as indicated in the Lubricants and Fuels Chart. Detergent oils contain addi-
tives that reduce corrosion, oil oxidation and deposits and have a high dispersion power of carbon matters produced by
combustion.
WARNING: The operations described hereunder must be carried out when the engine is off. Make sure that the
hand brake is engaged and the key is not inserted in the dashboard.
Personal safety devices must be worn for the indicated operations. Beware of burns caused by hot oil and engine parts.
If required, let the engine idle for the prescribed time to reach the required temperature to let the oil flow easily. Then
turn off the engine.
If you need to open the bonnet, follow the procedure indicated under "How to open the bonnet".
STEP 39A
Change of engine oil and engine oil
filter
During the running in period, the engine oil and oil filter
must be changed after the first 50 hours. Following this,
change the oil after every 500 hours service (1000, 500,
1500 hours, etc...)
NOTE: 500 hours is the maximum tolerated frequency
for oil changes. The oil must be changed more frequently
(e.g. every 250 hours) if the tractor is used in heavy duty
conditions.
To change the engine oil, put the tractor on level ground
and stop the engine.
NOTE: For best results change the oil while the engine
is still warm.
WARNING: Avoid contact with hot oil. Do not
change a hot filter due to risk of burning skin
on hands, wait until temperature is below
50°C (122°F).
Put a container of suitable size (see Lubricants and Fuels
chart for engine capacity) under the drain plug (1).
Remove the drain plug and drain the oil. Take care of hot
oil when draining.
IMPORTANT:Dispose of oil and filters in accordance with
local regulations. DO NOT drain the oil on the ground, into
a drain or put in a container that can leak. Be responsible
for the environment.
Turn the oil filter counterclockwise with a suitable wrench
to remove.
– Apply clean oil to the gasket on the new filter.
– Install the filter. Turn the filter clockwise until the gasket
comes in contact with the filter head. Tighten the filter
an additional one half turn by hand.
WARNING: Only use genuine filter cartridges. Use
of spurious cartridges could damage the engine and
shorten its working life.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use a filter wrench to install the
oil filter or you can cause damage to the gasket and filter.
– Install a new seal on the drain plug (1). Install the drain
plug in the crankcase and tighten.
– Fill with engine oil of correct grade, up to the MAX. level
(see Lubricants and Fuels chart). Never fill up to a level
higher than the MAX mark on the dipstick.
NOTE: Allow the oil to settle in the engine sump before
checking the level.
