Engine Oil, Change
Always follow the recommended oil change interval.
Use a manual or electric oil drain pump (optional
equipment) to pump the oil out of the oil pan.
WARNING!
Hot oil and hot surfaces can cause burns.
WARNING!
Working with or approaching a running engine is a
safety risk. Watch out for rotating components and hot
surfaces.
1 Run the engine until warm so that the oil is easier
to pump. Then stop the engine.
2 Connect a hose to the drain pump discharge(1) and
lead it to a collection vessel.
Alternative, remove the drain plug (2) and let the oil
run out into a collection vessel.
3 Open the tap (3) under the drain pump to the
position for draining engine oil (E). Suck up the oil.
4 Remove the drain hose (or install the bottom drain
plug).
5 Replace the oil filter and by-pass filter at every oil
change; refer to the Oil Filter/By-pass Filter,
Change, page 70 section.
6 Close the drain pump tap (S).
Fit the drain plug if it has been removed.
7 Fill oil to the correct level via the filler opening on
the side of the engine; refer to theTechnical Data,
Lubrication System section for oil quantity.
IMPORTANT:
Do not fill up above the maximum oil level. Only use
a recommended grade and quality of oil.
8 Start the engine and let it idle. Check that the low
oil pressure warning lamp goes out and that no
leaks are present at the filters.
9 Stop the engine. Wait a few minutes before
checking the oil level. Top up as needed.
Hand the old oil in to a re-cycling station.
