ENGINE
LUBRICATING
OIL
DESCRIPTION
The lubricating
system
is
a pressure feeding system
using
an
oil
pump.
The engine
oil
is
drawn
from
the
oil
sump
by
the
oil
pump,
which
drives
the
oil,
under pressure, through
the
oil
filter,
oil
cooler
and
various lubricating points
in
the
engine.
The
oil
then
returns
to
the
oil
sump
to
repeat
the
continuous
cycle.
Wbyn
the
oil
pressure exceeds the
specified pressure,
the
oil
pushes
open
the
relief
valve
in
the
oil
pump
and
returns
to
the
oil
sump,
keeping
the
oil
pressure
within
its
specified
range.

LUBRICATION
DIAGRAM
Use a
heavy
duty
engine oil with
an
API
classification of
SJ.
Change the engine oil and filter after
an
initial 50
hours
of
break-in operation, and every
100
hours
of operation
thereafter.An oil viscosity of SAE

is recommended
for this engine
in
all conditions.
A
CAUTION:
Do
not
allow
two
or
more
brands
of
engine
oil
to
mix.
Each
brand
contains
its
own
additives;
additives
of
different
brands
could
react
in
the
mixture
to
produce
properties
harmful
to
your
engine.
CHANGING
THE
ENGINE
OIL
The
engine
oil
should
be
wann.
Remove
the
oil
drain
hose
from
its
attachment bracket
and
lower it into a container
and
allow
the
oil
to
drain,
or attach a
pump
to
the
end
of
the
drain
hose
and
pump
the
old
oil
out.
Make sure
the
oil
drain
hose
is
properly
secured
in
its
holder
after
all
of
the
old
oil
has
been
drained.
Always
observe
the
old
oil
as
it
is
removed.
A
yellow/gray
emulsion
indicates
the
presence of
water
in
the
oil.
Although
this
condition
is
rare,
it
does
·require
prompt
attention
to
prevent
serious
damage.
Call a competent
mechanic
if
water
is
present
in
the
oil.
Raw
water present
in
the
oil
can
be
the
result of a
fault
in
the
exhaust
system
attached
to
the
engine and/or a siphoning through
the
raw
water
cooling
circuit
into
the
exhaust, filling into
the
engine.
