Engine Oil, Change
Always follow the recommended oil change interval.
Use an oil drain pump - an electrical oil drain pump is
available as an accessory - to pump the oil out of the
oil pan.
1 Run the engine until warm so that the oil is easier
to pump. Then stop the engine.
Wait
15 minutes after topping up to allow the oil time
to reach the sump.
WARNING!
Hot oil and hot surfaces can cause burns.
2 Connect the suction pipe on the oil drain pump to
the drain pipe (1
). Pump out the oil.
3 Replace the oil filter and by-pass filter at every oil
change.
4 Fill oil to the correct level through the filler opening
at the rear of the engine (2). For engine oil quantity,
refer to the Oil Grade and Oil Change Interval sec-
tion.
IMPORTANT! Use only oils of the recommended
grades; refer to the Oil Grade and Oil Change Inter-
val section.
5 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.
WARNING!
Working with or going close to a running engine is
a safety risk. Watch out for rotating components
and hot surfaces.
6 Stop the engine. Wait 15 minutes before checking
the oil level. Top up as needed.
Hand in the old oil and oil filter to a re-cycling station.
