|
The engine oil and filter change interval for standard service application is every 1000 hours when the following requirements are met:
When these requirements are not met, the oil and filter change interval should be every 500 hours, or use S·O·S Services oil sampling and analysis program to determine an acceptable oil change interval. If you select an interval for oil and filter change that is too long, you may damage the engine. |
| NOTICE |
|---|
|
When operating in any of the conditions or environments outlined in this Operation and Maintenance Manual, Severe Service Application, use S·O·S Services oil analysis to determine the best oil and filter change interval. When S·O·S Services are not used in severe service applications, the oil and filter change interval should be every 250 hours.. If you select an interval for oil and filter change that is too long, you may damage the engine. |

Procedure for Changing Engine Oil and Filter
 |
|
Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact skin. |
Note: If the sulfur content in the fuel is greater than 1.5 percent by weight, use an oil that has a TBN of 30 and reduce the oil change interval by one-half.
Note: Drain the crankcase while the oil is warm. This allows waste particles that are suspended in the oil to drain. As the oil cools, the waste particles will settle to the bottom of the crankcase. The particles will not be removed by draining the oil and the particles will recirculate in the engine lubrication system with the new oil.
- Prepare the machine for maintenance. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Prepare the Machine for Maintenance"
Note: Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "General Hazard Information" for information on Containing Fluid Spillage.
