™

oil pressure switch. If the oil pressure

decreases below an acceptable level, the Oil Sentry

will either shut off the engine or activate a warning

signal, depending on the application.

NOTE: Make sure the oil level is checked BEFORE

EACH USE and is maintained up to the "F"

mark on the dipstick. This includes engines

equipped with Oil Sentry

Change Oil and Oil Filter

Change Oil

Change oil after every 100 hours of operation. Refill with

service class SG, SH, SJ or higher oil as specified in

the Viscosity Grades table (Figure 2) on page 4.

Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The oil

will flow more freely and carry away more impurities.

Make sure the engine is level when filling, checking, or

changing the oil.

Change the oil as follows (see Figure 8):

1. To keep dirt, grass clippings, etc., out of the

engine, clean the area around the oil fill cap/

disptick before removing it.

2. Remove the oil drain plug and oil fill cap/dipstick.

Be sure to allow ample time for complete drainage.

3. Reinstall the drain plug. Make sure it is tightened

to 13.6 N·m (10 ft. lb.) torque.

4. Fill the crankcase, with new oil, of the proper type,

to the "F" mark on the dipstick. Refer to Oil Type

on page 4. Always check the level with the dipstick

before adding more oil.

5. Reinstall the oil fill cap or plug and tighten

securely.

NOTE: To prevent extensive engine wear or

™

damage, always maintain the proper oil

level in the crankcase. Never operate the

engine with the oil level below the "L" mark

or over the "F" mark on the dipstick.

Change Oil Filter

Replace the oil filter at least every other oil change

(every 200 hours of operation). Always use a genuine

Kohler oil filter. Use chart below to determine part

number to order.

Replace the oil filter as follows:

1. Drain the oil from the engine crankcase.

2. Allow the oil filter to drain.

3. Before removing the oil filter, clean the area around

the oil filter to keep dirt and debris out of the

engine. Remove the old filter. Wipe off the surface

where the oil filter mounts.

4. Place a new replacement filter in a shallow pan

with the open end up. Pour new oil of the proper

type in through the threaded center hole. Stop

pouring when the oil reaches the bottom of the

threads. Allow a minute or two for the oil to be

absorbed by the filter material.

5. Apply a thin film of clean oil to the rubber gasket

on the new filter.

6. Install the replacement oil filter to the filter adapter.

Turn the oil filter clockwise until the rubber gasket

contacts the filter adapter, then tighten the filter an

additional 3/4 to 1 turn.

7. Reinstall the drain plug.

8. Fill the crankcase with new oil of the proper type to

the ''F'' mark on the dipstick.

9. Start the engine and check for oil leaks. Correct

any leaks before placing the engine into service.

Check oil level to be sure it is up to but not over the

"F" mark.
