3.3 Lubrication System

See the Scheduled Maintenance section for oil change

and oil filter replacement intervals. See Section 1 for the

oil drain, oil check, oil fill, and oil filter locations.

3.3.1

Oil Specifications

Use oil that meets the American Petroleum Institute

(API) classification of CD or CF. Using an unsuitable oil

or neglecting an oil change may result in damage and a

shorter engine life. Figure 3-1 shows the recommended

Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) viscosity

designation for given operating temperature ranges.

Note: Failure to observe the oil specifications may

cause inadequate lubrication/oil pressure and

cold-starting difficulties.

Oil Check

Check the oil level in the crankcase daily or before each

startup to ensure that the level is in the safe range. To

check the oil level, remove the dipstick and wipe the end

clean, reinsert as far as possible, and remove. Maintain

the oil level between the Min and Max marks on the

dipstick, as shown in Figure 3-2. See Section 1 for

dipstick location.
