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

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

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.
