Check Engine Lubrication OilCheck Engine Lubrication Oil
The engine lubrication oil must be kept at a level above
the ADD mark, but not above the FULL mark, on the
engine oil dipstick.
DO NOT check the oil while the engine
is running. Hot oil can spew and cause serious
personal injury.
Engine oil should be API classication CJ-4. Change the
type of oil according to the ambient temperature:

To check the engine lubrication oil level:
1. Park the machine on a level surface and turn off the
engine.
2. Wait ve minutes to allow the oil to return to the oil
pan so you can obtain an accurate measurement of
the engine oil level.
3. Raise the engine hood. (Page 5-6)
4. Clean the area around the engine oil dipstick before
removing it from the engine. (Figure 5-10)
5. Remove the dipstick from the engine and checking
the oil level. The oil level should be above the
ADD mark--but not above the FULL mark--on the
dipstick.
6. Add oil if needed.
DO NOT overll. Oil can drain through
the air intake system if overlled and cause oil leaks
from breather piping.
