Some engines are equipped with an optional Oil
Sentry™ switch. This switch is designed to prevent
the engine from starting in a low oil or no oil
condition. The Oil Sentry™ may not shut down
a running engine before damage occurs. In some
applications this switch may activate a warning signal.
Read your equipment manuals for more information.
The pressure switch is designed to break contact as
the oil pressure increases above 3-5 psi, and make
contact as the oil pressure decreases below 3-5 psi.

5. Place a new replacement filter in a shallow pan
with the open end up. Pour new oil, of the proper
type, in through the threaded center hole. Stop
pouring when the oil reaches the boom of the
threads. Allow a minute or two for the oil to be
absorbed by the filter material.
6. Apply a thin film of clean oil to the rubber gasket
on the new oil filter.
7. Install the new oil filter to the filter adapter or oil
cooler. Refer to instructions on the oil filter for
proper installation.
8. Fill the engine with the proper oil to the “FULL”
or “F” mark on the dipstick. Always check the oil
level with the dipstick before adding more oil.
9. Reinstall the oil fill cap/dipstick.
10. Start the engine and check for oil leaks. Recheck
oil level before placing the engine into service.
Stop the engine, correct any leaks, and allow a
minute for the oil to drain down, then recheck the
level on the dipstick.

cooler. Inspect and clean the oil cooler annually or
