NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained
during performance of inspection, maintenance, test-
ing, adjusting and repair of the product. Be prepared to
collect the fluid with suitable containers before open-
ing any compartment or disassembling any compo-
nent containing fluids.
Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, “Caterpillar
Tools and Shop Products Guide” for tools and supplies
suitable to collect and contain fluids on Caterpillar
products.
Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and
mandates.
Your machine may be equipped with a high speed
arrangement for changing the engine oil. The high
speed arrangement allows the oil to be quickly
withdrawn. The high speed arrangement allows the
oil to be quickly replaced.
The high speed arrangement has a hose which is
attached to the oil pan at the drain hole. The other
end of the hose has a quick coupler.
Note: Drain the crankcase while the oil is warm. This
allows waste particles that are suspended in the oil to
drain. As the oil cools, the waste particles will settle
to the bottom of the crankcase. The particles w ill not
be removed by draining the oil and the particles will
recirculate in the engine lubrication system with the
new oil.
