VALVE GP-BANK 1465497 - Caterpillar

Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact skin.
Note: If the sulfur content in the fuel is greater than 1.5% by weight, use an oil that has a TBN of 30 and reduce the oil change interval by one-half.Park the machine on a level surface and engage the parking brake. Stop the engine.Note: Drain the crankcase while the oil is warm. This allows waste particles that are suspended in the oil to drain. As the oil cools, the waste particles will settle to the bottom of the crankcase. The particles will not be removed by draining the oil and the particles will recirculate in the engine lubrication system with the new oil.
