Renewing the oil filter
Clean the centrifugal oil cleaner when renewing
the oil filter.
Otherwise, the oil filter will be blocked and re-
sistance in the filter will increase. If this happens,
an overflow valve in the filter retainer opens and
lets the oil pass without being filtered.
1.
Unscrew the filter cover with a socket
wrench with hexagon driver e.g. 36 mm
socket 588 475.
Do not use an adjustable spanner or other open
tool as there is risk of damaging the filter cover.
2.
Lift out the filter housing cover with filter el-
ement. The filter housing will drain automat-
ically once the filter has been removed.
3.
Detach the old filter from the cover by hold-
ing the cover and carefully tapping the entire
filter element against something hard. Re-
member that there will be oil splashes.
4.
Fit the new filter and tighten the filter cover
to 25 Nm (18 lbf ft).
