•Remove covers or guards only when necessary to perform maintenance and replace them when the maintenance requiring their removal is complete.

•If covers or guards are missing from the machine, get replacements from a Lincoln Distributor. See the Exploded View and Parts List at the back of this manual.

Read the Safety Precautions in the front of this manu- al and in the instruction manual for the diesel engine used with your machine before working on the Classic II.

Keep all equipment safety guards, covers, and devices in position and in good repair. Keep your hands, hair, clothing, and tools away from the recoil housing, fans, and all other moving parts when starting, operating, or repairing this machine.

ROUTINE AND PERIODIC

MAINTENANCE

NOTE: NAMEPLATES

Whenever routine maintenance is performed on this machine - or at least yearly - inspect all nameplates and labels for legibility. Replace those which are no longer clear. Refer to the parts list for the replacement item number.

See Table D.1 for a summary of maintenance intervals for the items listed below. Follow either the hourly or the calendar intervals, whichever come first. More fre- quent service may be required, depending on your spe- cific application and operating conditions.

OIL: Check the oil level after every 10 hours of operation or daily. BE SURE TO MAINTAIN THE OIL LEVEL.

Change the oil the first time after 50 hours of opera- tion. Then, under normal operating conditions, change the oil as specified in Table D.1. If the engine is oper- ated under heavy load or in high ambient tempera- tures, change the oil more frequently.

CHANGE THE OIL: Change the oil, while the engine is still warm, as follows:

1 . Drain the oil from the drain plug located on the engine bottom, as shown in Figure D.1.

2.Replace the plug and tighten it securely.

3.Remove the oil fill cap and add oil until the level reaches the upper dash full mark on the dipstick. Use high quality detergent oil of API service class CC/CD/CE, oil viscosity grade 10W30. Always check the level with the dipstick before adding more oil.

4.Reinstall the oil fill cap and the dipstick.
