LUBRICATION/FILTERS/FLUIDS
IMPORTANT: Before installing, fill the oil filter with new and clean oil. Before installing the filter, apply also a light film of oil in the area of the filter gasket seal.
IMPORTANT: Tightening the filter with a wrench can damage it, therefore tighten it by hand. Then check if there are leaks around the base when the engine is running. Tighten it more if necessary. The proper torque is completed with 3/4" of a turn after contact by grasping the base with both hands.

1. ENGINE OIL FILTER
Add specified oil, through the filler neck. Start the engine and keep it running for 15 minutes to fill the filters and lubricate the engine. Check the oil level and top off as necessary. Check if there is any leakage from the filters.
Lubrication Analysis
The normal engine oil change interval is every 500hours of operation or once a year whichever occurs first. Operating conditions, quality of the engine oil and sulphur content of the fuel can change this interval. See your dealer.
IMPORTANT: Never drain oil or remove oil filter while engine is running.
WARNING: Replace all covers or guards after servicing or cleaning the machine. NEVER operate the machine with covers or guards removed.!
