OPERATION MACHINE OPERATIONS AND CONTROLS Check Oil Level in Engine Oil Pan, Add Oil Engine parts and oil are at high temperature immediately after the engine is stopped, and will cause seri- ous burns. Wait for the temperature to cool down before starting the operation. 1. Open the engine hood on the machine. 2. Remove dipstick (G), and wipe the oil off with a cloth. 3. Completely insert dipstick (G) into the oil filler pipe, then remove it and check the oil level. 4. The oil level should be between the H and L marks on dip- stick (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 line, open drain valve (P) at the bot- tom of the engine oil pan, drain the excess engine oil, then check the oil level again. 6. If the oil level is correct, tighten the oil filler cap securely and close the engine hood. 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. 3-59 WARNING
