Engine oil
In 4T engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, the bench bearings and the
thermal group.
An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine.
In all 4T engines, the deterioration of the oil characteristics, or a certain consumption should be con-
sidered normal, especially if during the run-in period. Consumption levels in particular can be influenced
by the conditions of use (e.g.: oil consumption increases when driving at "full throttle".
Replacement
Change oil and replace filter as indicated in the
scheduled maintenance table. The engine must be
emptied by draining off the oil through the drainage
plug of the mesh pre-filter, flywheel side; further-
more to facilitate oil drainage, loosen or remove
the cap/dipstick. Once all the oil has drained
through the drainage hole, unscrew the oil car-
tridge filter and remove it.
Make sure the pre-filter and drainage plug O-rings
are in good conditions.
Lubricate them and refit the mesh filter and the oil
drainage plug, screwing them up to the prescribed
torque.
Refit the new cartridge filter being careful to lubri-
cate the O-ring before fitting it.
Change the engine oil.
