Engine Oil
Page 38 Bobcat 2200 Gasoline and Diesel Vehicle Operation & Maintenance Manual
NOTE: An oil drip guard can be used to prevent excess oil from dripping onto the engine base plate. Use
an empty quart (liter) container and cut the bottom off at an angle, then slide the open area of the
container up and under the oil filter before removal. Position the port of the plastic container so oil
will be directed into the oil pan (Figure 24). A drip guard can be made by folding a piece of card-
board, thin metal, or plastic under the oil filter, forming a channel to direct the filter port oil into the
drain pan.
Dispose of used oil according to the environmental laws and regulations for your area.
4. Use a clean, lint-free rag to wipe the oil filter port flange surface clean where the oil filter gasket seats.
5. To help seal the new oil filter to the oil port flange, apply a light coat of white lithium NLGI Number 2
grease (Dow Corning
®
BR2-Plus or equivalent) or new engine oil to the rubber seal around the outside
surface of the filter before attaching it to the oil filter port (Figure 25). Install the new oil filter (gas:
102443401 CC, diesel: 102628401 CC) onto the engine oil filter port. See following NOTE.
