OIL FILTER The spin on type engine oil filter should be replaced when the engine oil is changed every 250 service hours.
Servicing To replace the engine oil filter: 1) Ensure that the engine has had sufficient time to cool and is isolated and tagged as described in Section 1. 2) Remove the oil filter cartridge, located adjacent to the fuel/water separator, using a strap wrench. 3) Dispose of the used oil filter cartridge in a responsible manner. 4) Clean the oil filter adaptor with a clean, lint free, cloth. 5) Lightly coat the oil filter gasket with clean engine oil. 6) Screw the new oil filter cartridge onto the adaptor by hand until the gasket just touches the mounting adaptor head. Tighten an additional ⅔ of a turn. CAUTION Over tightening the oil filter cartridge may damage the seal resulting in an oil leak.
7) 8) 9)
Start and run the engine for a short period and check for leaks. After any leaks have been rectified stop the engine and allow the oil to return to the sump (this will take approximately five minutes). Add oil as required to bring the level up to the full mark on the dipstick
