Monitoring the Lubricating Oil Filter

Monitoring the Lubricating Oil Filter - Ops EuroV

The engines are equipped with a single cartridge-style oil filter (1) that is part of the oil/coolant module. Incorporated into the housing is a drain back port which allows residual oil to be returned to the oil pan when the filter is removed. This design, including the cartridge style element, allows for a more environmentally-safe oil change.

Perform the following maintenance on the Lubricating Oil Filter:

  1. Replace the oil filters when recommended by the appropriate maintenance table.
  2. Make a visual check of all lubricating oil lines for wear and/or chafing. If any indication of wear is evident, replace the oil lines and correct the cause.
  3. Check for oil leaks after starting the engine.
