25-3-2. Checking and replenishing the engine oil
1) Open the engine hood.
2) Pull out the oil dipstick (G) and wipe oil off it with a cloth.
3) Insert the oil dipstick (G) fully again and pull it out.
4) Check that the oil level is above the midpoint between
the upper and lower limit marks (H and L).
Open the cap of the oil supply port (F) and replenish oil
if the oil level is below the midpoint.
See Section "21. Fueling, Oiling and Greasing Based on
Temperature Range" for the engine oil to be used.
5) If the engine oil level is above the H mark, drain the ex-
cess engine oil through the drain plug (P), and check
the engine oil level again.
6) If the engine oil level is proper, securely close the port
cap and close the engine hood.
Note :
When checking the engine oil level after the engine has
been running, stop the engine and wait at least 15 minutes
before checking.
If the machine is on an incline, make it level before check-
ing the engine oil level.
Do not discard the excess engine oil onto the ground or the
road.
• At operating temperature, the oil and dipstick ar-
eas are hot.
• Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact
the skin, to prevent bodily injury.
Check oil level and replenish oil after engine has
cooled down sufficiently.
