OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:


  • Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the loss of natural oil from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

  • Wear protective clothing and gloves. Avoid contact with used oil. If contact occurs, wash the area thoroughly with soap and waterless hand cleaner. Never use gasoline, thinners, or solvents to wash the skin.

  • In order to protect the environment, dispose of used oil and used oil filters at designated disposal sites only.

      1. Depending on the work space available, choose from the following.

        If enough space is available, use a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter sub-assembly.

        Torque:
        17 N*m  { 175 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }

        If enough space is not available to use a torque wrench, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly a 3/4 turn by hand or use a common wrench.

  6. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Clean and install the oil pan drain plug and a new gasket.

      Torque:
      38 N*m  { 382 kgf*cm, 28 ft.*lbf }
    2. Add fresh engine oil.
