Put an oil receiving pan under the lter and remove the drain plug
of the transmission to drain the torque converter.
Remove the suction pipe and take out the suction strainer. Clean
it.
After completing the above step, add new oil into the torque
converter through the oil fill port (3 months or 600 hours of
operation for the rst time only).
After changing the oil, start the engine and let it run at low rpm
for a few minutes to clean inside the torque converter. Drain the
torque converter, add new oil again and let the engine run at low
rpm. Repeat this procedure until oil drained through the drain plug
is clean.
