3.
Wipe away all dirt around the oil filler plug. It is located by the oil filter.
4.
Remove the oil filler plug and add oil as required to return the oil level to the max. line on the site
glass.
5.
Install the oil filler plug, run and check for leaks.
DO NOT OVERFILL. The quantity required to raise the oil level from the red range to the white range is
three (3) quarts (Figure 5-2, page 26). Repeated addition of oil between oil changes may indicate
excessive oil carryover and should be investigated.
Use only CLEAN containers and funnels so no dirt enters the reservoir. Provide for clean storage of oils.
Changing the oil will be of little benefit if done in a careless manner.

OIL CHANGE INTERVAL
- Recommended oil change intervals are based on oil temperature. Figure 5-3,
shows how the change interval is affected by temperature.
When operating conditions are severe (very dusty, high humidity, etc.), it will be necessary to change the
oil more frequently. Operating conditions and the appearance of the drained oil must be surveyed and
the oil change intervals planned accordingly by the user. Champion offers a free oil analysis program
with the RotorLub lubricants and we recommend a sample be sent in at 100 hours on a new unit.
