1. Remove the inspection cover of the undercover directly
under drain plug (P) under the machine, then place a con-
tainer to catch the oil.
2. To prevent getting oil on yourself, lower the lever of drain
valve (P) slowly, drain the oil, then raise the lever to close
the valve.
3. Open the cover at the rear right, then use a filter wrench to
turn filter cartridge (1) to the left to remove it.
4. Clean the filter holder, fill the new filter cartridge with clean engine oil, coat the thread and packing surface of
the new filter cartridge with clean engine oil (or coat it thinly with grease), then install it to the filter holder.
REMARK
Confirm that no remnants of old packing still adhere to the filter holder as this may result in oil leakage.
Check that there is no old packing affixed to the filter holder. If there is any old packing affixed to the filter,
it will cause leakage of oil.
5. When installing, tighten until the packing surface contacts the seal surface of the filter holder, then tighten it a
further 3/4 to 1 turn.
