rection of the steering system requires spe-
cial tools and special training.
17. REPLACEMENT OF ENGINE OIL
IMPORTANT:
•
The engine oil should be replaced with
fresh oil in accordance with operation
hours. If not, overly used oil will cause
engine troubles.
•
The first replacement should be done
after the initial 50 hours of operation and
then after every 100 hours of operation.
When replacing engine oil, place the
lawn mower on level, hard ground. The
engine oil drain is located bottom of the
engine oil pan, which is accessible from
the right side of the lawn mower.
a. Place a tray or the like under the oil drain to receive
drained oil.
b. The engine should be warmed up for 10 minutes or so
ahead of time to heat the oil to lower its viscosity for
compete drainage.
(1) Oil pan
(2) Drain plug
c. Remove the drain plug allowing the used oil drain out
completely.
d. When the used oil has drained out completely, screw
the drain plug back in securely.
e. Remove the oil filler cap from top of the cylinder head
and pour in fresh engine oil through the oil filler. Be
sure to use oil recommended by ISEKI. Refer to “EN-
GINE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION” on page 46.
(1) Cylinder head cover
(2) Filler cap
Engine oil capacity: 2.6 liters (0.57 imp.gal.)
f. After engine oil replacement, start the engine and let it
idle for a while.
g. Then stop it and wait for a while until the engine oil
comes down into the oil pan. Now check the oil level
to check to see if it is at the upper limit or not. When
the level is low, replenish until the level reaches the
upper limit.
IMPORTANT: Never fill over the upper limit, or it may
cause engine trouble.
h. Make sure that there is no oil leakage through the
drain plug and oil filter.
18. REPLACEMENT OF ENGINE OIL FILTER
IMPORTANT: • The engine oil filter should be replaced
after the initial 50 hours of operation and
then after every 300 hours of operation.
•
It is recommended to ask your dealer
to replace the engine oil filter, because
this operation requires a special tool.
But when there is no alternative but to
replace the filter by yourself, observe fol-
lowing instructions.
a. Drain engine oil completely following the instructions
of “17. REPLACEMENT OF ENGINE OIL .”
