LUBRICATION

API service classification SG-SL. Select the
oil's SAE viscosity grade according to your
expected operating temperature.
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30,
10W30 etc.) improvestarting incold weather,
they will result in increased oil consumption
when used above 32°F/0°C.
Check your
engine oil level morefrequently to avoid pos-
sible engine damage from running low on oil.
Change the oil after every 50 hours of opera-
tion or at least once a year if the tractor is
not used for 50 hours in one year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting
the engine and after each eight (8) hours
of operation.
Tighten oil fill cap/dipstick
securely each time you check the oil level.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL

range expected
before oil change, All oil must meet API
service classification SG-SL.
• Be sure tractor is on level surface,
• Oil wilt drain more freely when warm.
• Catch oil in a suitable container.
1. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick. Be careful
not to allow dirt to enter the engine when
changing oil.
