Engine oil and oil filter cartridge
Check engine oil level before each operation.
In addition, change the oil and the oil filter car-
tridge at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Lift the cargo bed up. (See page 4-26 for
cargo bed lifting and lowering proce-
dures.)
3. Check the engine oil level on a cold en-
gine.
TIP
If the engine was started before checking the
oil level, be sure to warm up the engine suffi-
ciently, and then wait at least 10 minutes until
the oil settles for an accurate reading.
4. Remove the engine oil dipstick, and then
wipe it off with a clean rag.
