OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:


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

  • Take precautions when replacing engine oil to minimize the risk of your skin making contact with used engine oil. Wear protective clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil. Wash skin with soap and water, or use waterless hand cleaner, to completely remove any used engine oil. Do not use gasoline, thinner, or solvents.

  • Dispose of used oil and used oil filters at designated disposal sites in order to preserve the environment.

      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.

        Torque:
        13 N*m  { 133 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf }

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

  4. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Add fresh engine oil.
