Engine Oil Filter
Change the engine oil filter after the first 20 hours of operation, and every
300 hours thereafter. If the engine service is severe, the filter must be changed
more often.
NOTE: The change interval is 200 hours on machines with turbocharger.
A spin-on type filter is located on the left-hand side of the engine. To
change the filter:
1. After the crankcase has been drained, remove the old filter by turning out
counterclockwise with a strap wrench or special wrench A64761 (avail-
able through your Case dealer).
2. Clean the area on the filter mounting bracket where gasket contact is
made.
3. Apply a coat of clean oil to the gasket of the new filter. Install the filter by
turning in a clockwise direction until gasket contact is made. Hand tighten
1/2 turn.
4. Loosen the filter approximately one full turn. Retighten by turning clock-
wise until gasket contact is made. Hand tighten 1/2 to 3/4 turn to obtain the
proper seal.
5. Install the oil pan drain plug with nylon gasket. Tighten to a torque of 18to
20 pound-feet (24 to 28 N m).
6. Refill the crankcase with 11 measured quarts (10.4 litres) of oil. Start the
engine and operate a few minutes at low idle. Check for leaks. Stop the
engine and allow to stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Check the oil level with the
dipstick.
NOTE: If engine has a turbocharger, pullout fuel shutoff control and
crank engine 20 to 30 seconds before starting.
