ENGINE OIL

The engine crankcase is filled with ship-away oil. This oil may be used for the first 30 hours of engine operation at temperatures between +90 degrees F. and 0 degrees F. If temperatures are not within this range, drain the oil from the crankcase and replace with new oil as specified in the

"lubrication Table". The engine oil must be drained and replaced with new oil every 30 hours of engine operation.

We recommend I.H. No. 1@ Engine Oil. If other than I.H. No. 1@ Engine Oil is used, it must be designated "For Service MS". In new API Code these oils are usually designated as meeting either SO or SE requirements.

Lubricate the entire tractor, using only high quality lubricating oils and greases as specified in the "Lubrication Table". For your own protection, select only oils and greasesof recognized manufac-
