Most air cleaner filter elements can be cleaned with air, water or detergent. Have spare elements on hand to use while cleaning used elements.Filter elements can be cleaned with pressure air - 205 kPa (30 psi) maximum, pressure water - 280 kPa (40 psi) maximum, or detergent washing. 1. Direct air or water along the pleats inside and outside of filter element.The element can be washed in warm water and nonsudsing household detergent.

Make sure you read and understand the information in the Lubricant Specifications section of this manual before you proceed with maintenance of the crankcase lube oil system.
Check Oil Level
1. Check the oil level with the engine stopped. DO NOT check the oil level with the engine running. Refer to the Refill Capacities chart and Lubricant Specifications to show the proper amount and quality of oil to be used at oil change time, and to determine the correct level on the dip stick for your application. 2. Maintain the oil level between the ADD (MIN) and FULL (MAX) marks on the dip stick. Ensure that the engine oil level is not above the FULL (MAX) mark on the dip stick. DO NOT overfill to reach above or, to top of FULL (MAX) mark on the dip stick. Operating your engine when the oil level is above the FULL (MAX) mark could cause your crankshaft to dip into the oil. If this happens, the air bubbles created from the crankshaft dipping into the oil will reduce the lubricating characteristics of your oil and could result in the loss of power.If the dip stick does not have a FULL (MAX) mark, refer to calibrating the oil level gauge by consulting your Caterpillar dealer before operating the engine. 3. Remove the oil filler cap and add oil if necessary. The minimum capacity (ADD oil mark) is 5.6 liter (5.9 U.S. quart) for the 3054 engine. See Refill Capacities and Lubricant Specifications for the size of your engine crankcase and recommended oil to use. Remote mounted or auxiliary oil filters will require additional oil than what the Refill Capacities chart states. For all information pertaining to auxiliary oil filters, refer to the OEM filter manufacturer's instructions. Cooling System
