Changing the engine oil
WARNING
Risk of burn injury!
If it is necessary to discharge the engine oil when the
oil is still hot, avoid contact with the oil in order to
avoid burn injuries. Wear eye protection.
Failure to comply with regulations may result in death
or serious injury.
CAUTION
Use only designated oil. Other types of oil may affect
quality of use and shorten the service life of the en-
gine or internal parts.
Avoid contamination of the engine by dirt or dust. Be-
fore removing the oil cap, carefully clean the oil cap/
dipstick and surrounding areas.
Avoid mixing different brands of oil. Mixing different
brands of oil will seriously affect lubrication.
Avoid overfilling. Overfilling may result in white
smoke, overspeed or internal damage.
CAUTION
Be environmentally responsible. Dispose of used oil
in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Failure to comply with laws and regulations will result
in serious damage to the environment.
Comply with EPA guidelines or government meas-
ures for the correct handling of hazardous materials
(such as oil, diesel and engine coolant). Consult the
local authorities or recycling facility.
Irresponsible handling of hazardous materials, such
as dumping hazardous waste into water channels, on
the ground, into groundwater or drainage ditches, is
prohibited.
Bleed the oil using the following steps:
– Ensure that the engine is in a level position.
– Start the engine and run until it reaches op-
erating temperature.
– Stop the engine.
