“Refill Capacities” for more information on refill
capacities.

If equipped with an auxiliary oil filter system or a re-
mote filter
system, follow the OEM or the filter manu-
factures recommendations. Under filling or over fi lling
the crankcase with oil can cause engine damage.
2. Start the engine and run the engine at “LOW

order to
ensure that the lubrication system has
oil and that the oil filters are filled. Inspect the oil
filter for oil leaks.
