2.Tighten drain plug. Clean the filter holder, fill the new filter cartridge with clean engine oil, coat the packing and thread of the new filter cartridge with engine oil, then install it to the filter holder. Tighten until the gasket surface contacts the seal surface of the filter holder, then tighten it a further 3/4 to 1 turn.

3.Add engine oil through oil filler until the oil level is between the H and L marks on the dipstick.

4.Run the engine at idling for a short time, then stop the engine. Recheck the oil level and fill as necessary.

V-belt

Visually examine the V-belt (Figure 28) and determine if it is full of tiny cracks, frayed, has pieces of rubber missing, is peeling or otherwise damaged.

Also, examine the belt and determine if it is oil soaked or "glazed " (hard shiny appearance on the sides of the belt). Either of these two conditions can cause the belt to run hot, which can weaken it and increase the danger of it breaking.

If the V-belt exhibits any of the above wear conditions replace the V-belt immediately.
