Maintenance
Change Engine Oil and Filter
The engine lubrication oil and oil lter must be changed
at the same time. (Figure 5-11)
To change the engine lubrication oil:
1. Park the paver on a level surface and turn off the
engine.
Change the engine lubrication oil
while the engine is WARM, not hot. Hot oil can cause
serious personal injury.
2. If needed, wait until the engine lubrication oil has
cooled a little. Oil should be warm, not hot.
3. Locate the oil drain hose behind the access door on
right side of the paver.
4. Place a container large enough to hold 15 quarts
(14.2 liters) of oil underneath the drain hose.
5. Remove cap on end of the hose and drain all engine
oil into the container.
6. Reinstall cap back onto the hose and reinsert hose
back into place.
7. Fill the engine with 15 quarts (14.2 liters) of oil at the
oil ll cap.
8. Check oil level using the oil dipstick.
9. Dispose of used oil in accordance with local and
federal environmental laws.
DO NOT change the engine lubrication
oil lter while the engine is running. Serious engine
damage will occur.
Use the following procedures to change the oil lter:
1. Wipe the area around the oil lter and its mounting
base with a clean cloth.
2. Place the empty container under the lter element.
3. Use a lter removal wrench to remove the lter,
turning counterclockwise.
4. Drain and discard the oil lter in accordance with
Step 9 above, including the rubber gasket.
5. Wipe inside the oil lter head using a clean, lint-free
cloth.
6. Rub a little clean oil on the rubber gasket area of the
new lter element.
7. Install the new lter element onto the lter head.
Carefully tighten the lter (by hand only).
Fuel System
Fuel Tank
The fuel level is indicated on the digital display fuel
gauge. Use only low-sulfer diesel fuel and always
ll the fuel tank at the end of the work day to prevent
condensation. The green fuel cap is located on the
left side of the paver in front of the operator platform.
(Figure 5-12)
Fill up with low-sulfer diesel fuel at the
end of the day to reduce condensation in the tank.
Diesel fuel is highly FLAMMABLE.
DO NOT smoke while lling the fuel tank. Fill the
fuel tank in a designated area that provides proper
ventilation with a re extinguisher available.
Explosion Hazard! Never ll the fuel
tank near an open ame, or near equipment that can
create sparks. Never check fuel level or fuel system
components near an open ame.
Fuel Cap
Figure 5-12. Fuel Cap
To ll the fuel tank:
1. Stop engine.
2. Remove fuel cap from fuel tank.
3. Fill with diesel fuel until full.
4. Replace fuel cap.
Change Fuel Filter
The fuel lter, water separator and fuel pump with bowl
lter are conveniently located together on the engine
access door in the hopper. (Figure 5-13)
DO NOT smoke or change fuel
lter near open ames as diesel fuel is highly
combustible. Be careful not to spill fuel.
