Typical Breather Port - Do Not Use To Fill Oil
Back Plate Fill Port - Preferred Oil Fill Location
Filling the crankcase with fresh oil:
When refilling the crankcase, oil can be added
through the breather port at the top of the crank-
case or through the back plate fill port, depending
on which port is most accessible on your unit.
Always clean the area around the fill port before
removing the plug to add oil, this reduces the pos-
sibility of dirt and debris entering the crankcase
when the fill plug is removed.
We recommend that the back plate fill port be
used to fill the crankcase whenever possible. The
oil will be added directly to the main oil sump and
the level will register immediately on the sight
gauge. When the breather port at the top of sump
is used, oil is added to the upper sump and it can
take several hours before the oil drains to the
main sump and the correct oil level is indicated
on the sight gauge.
1.
Clean the area around the back plate fill port
and remove the plug.
2. Make sure the drain valve is closed and the
safety plug is installed in the valve fitting and
tightened.
3. Add the recommended amount of high grade,
non-detergent, 80w90 gear oil to the crank-
case. Refer to the pump manufacturer’s Opera-
tion and Maintenance manual for the correct
quantity of gear oil.
4.
Verify the crankcase oil level when filling is
complete following the instructions for check-
ing the oil level in the previous section of this
chapter.
5.
Make sure the fill plug is clean and insert the
plug into the filler port. Tighten the plug to
specifications.
6. Wipe up any spilled oil and properly dispose
of the waste oil and oil soaked rags.
