OPERATION OPERATION CHECK OIL LEVEL IN POWER TRAIN CASE, ADD OIL WARNING The parts and oil are at high temperature after the engine is stopped, and may cause serious burns. Wait for the temperature to go down before starting the operation. 1. Open cover at the right side of the machine. 2. Remove dipstick (G), and wipe the oil off with a cloth. 3. Insert dipstick (G) fully in the oil filler pipe, then take it out again. 4. The oil level should be between the H and L marks on dipstick (G). If the oil level is below the L mark, add engine oil through oil filler (F). 5. If the oil is above the H mark, drain the excess engine oil from drain plug (P), and check the oil level again. 6.
If the oil level is correct, tighten the oil filter cap securely. REMARK When checking the oil level after the engine has been operated, wait for at least 15 minutes after stopping the engine before checking. If the machine is at an angle, make it horizontal before checking.
