NOTE:
Replace the primary filter every six
months or 15,000 miles. Refer to the
engine OEM manual for secondary
filter replacement intervals.
NOTE:
Always use a container when draining
or changing the fuel filters. Dispose
of the container properly. The water
and sediment can contain petroleum
products. Consult the local waste
disposal agency for recommended
disposal guidelines
In the event the engine runs out of fuel,
the lift pump on the fuel pump will run for
approximately one minute with the ignition on.
The ignition may have to be turned on and off
several times before attempting a start. If unable
to restart, contact the nearest Cummins Center or
phone 1-800-343-7357 for Cummins Customer
Assistance.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Check for oil leaks under the motorhome and
around hose ttings when performing a walk-
around and inspection of the motorhome. If a
hose connection appears to be leaking, clean
the lter and the surrounding area. If seepage
continues, have the problem corrected to prevent
an untimely failure.
Hydraulic Reservoir (Power Steering)
The power steering
reservoir with internal
lter is located in the rear
curbside compartment.
The hydraulic lter
assembly, located inside
the reservoir, is rated at
ten micron. The reservoir
is lled with Dexron III
®
Automatic Transmission
Fluid from the factory.
The primary function of the power steering
reservoir is to keep the steering system free of
contamination and to dissipate excessive heat
that builds during extreme operating conditions.
Check the oil level in the reservoir every
6,000 miles or three months. The oil dipstick ll
is located on top of the reservoir. The oil level
should be kept between the full and add marks
on the dipstick. Add Dexron III
®
Automatic
Transmission Fluid if necessary.
Checking the Fluid Level:
1. Start the engine and allow it to reach
normal operating temperature.
2. While the engine is at idle, turn the
steering wheel left and right several
times.
3. Shut the engine off.
4. Rotate the handle counterclockwise to
remove the dipstick.
5. Check the uid level on the “Hot” side
of the dipstick. It should be in the area
of “Hot” on the dipstick. This is the
normal range. Do not exceed the full
mark.
6. If the uid level is low, add uid in
small amounts, continuously checking
the level until the “Full” mark is
reached.
7. Insert the handle back in the reservoir
and rotate clockwise until securely
fastened.
Hydraulic Filter (Power Steering)
Change the hydraulic oil lter every 15,000
miles, or once a year, for cellulose element. A
synthetic media lter is available, which will
extend the interval to once every ve years.
