The selection of oil is dependent upon the service that the vehicle will perform. Most vehicles require 10W-30 oil,
whereas vehicles used at capacity or near capacity load applications will utilize 10W-40 oil after a break-in period of
100 hours.
If vehicle is to be stored over winter months, it can be stored with old oil left in engine. The oil should be changed as
part of spring maintenance. This will remove any moisture that has accumulated during storage.
Be aware that engine fluids may be hot and contact to the skin may cause severe burns. Wear
rubber gloves to protect skin from exposure to the old oil and degreaser.
The oil should be changed with engine warm. Park vehicle on a level surface, engage parking brake and remove key. Place a drain
pan under engine. Wipe top of the engine clean with a cloth. Remove the oil fill cap.
Clean the area around filter. Using a filter wrench, strap wrench or other suitable wrench, remove the filter (B) from
the engine and allow the oil to drain. The ‘O’ rings may remain on engine (A) or filter (B)
