Engine Oil Sample - Obtain
SMCS - 1000-008
Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact the skin.
Obtain the Sample and the Analysis
In addition to a good preventive maintenance program, Caterpillar recommends using S·O·S oil analysis at regular scheduled intervals in order to monitor the condition of the engine and the maintenance requirements of the engine.
Each oil sample should be taken when the oil is warm and when the oil is well mixed. The sample should be taken at this time in order to ensure that the sample is representative of the oil in the crankcase.
Obtain the S·O·S Sample
Use the following method in order to obtain an S·O·S sample:
• Use a 1U-5718 Vacuum Pump or use an equivalent pump that is inserted into the sump.
To avoid contamination of the oil samples, the tools and the supplies that are used for obtaining oil samples must be clean.
Consult your Caterpillar dealer for complete information and assistance in establishing an S·O·S program for your engine.

If you fill the engine too fast with oil, the oil may saturate the engine breather. If the breather is saturated with oil, oil will blow out of the breather hose until the breather is free of oil. Add the engine oil at a rate of 2 L/min (0.5283 US gpm). This will help prevent saturating the breather with oil.

Cleaning Primary Air Filter Elements
NOTICE
Caterpillar recommends certified air filter cleaning services available at participating Caterpillar dealers. The Caterpillar cleaning process uses proven procedures to assure consistent quality and sufficient filter life.
Observe the following guidelines if you attempt to clean the filter element:
Do not tap or strike the filter element in order to remove dust.
Do not wash the filter element.
Use low pressure compressed air in order to remove the dust from the filter element. Air pressure must not exceed 207 kPa (30 psi). Direct the air flow up the pleats and down the pleats from the inside of the filter element. Take extreme care in order to avoid damage to the pleats.
Do not use air filters with damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Dirt entering the engine will cause damage to engine components.
The primary air filter element can be used up to six times if the element is properly cleaned and if the element is properly inspected. When the primary air filter element is cleaned, check for rips or tears in the filter material. The primary air filter element should be replaced at least one time per year. This replacement should be performed regardless of the number of cleanings.
NOTICE
Do not clean the air filter elements by bumping or tapping. This could damage the seals. Do not use elements with damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Damaged elements will allow dirt to pass through. Engine damage could result.
Visually inspect the primary air filter elements before cleaning. Inspect the air filter elements for damage to the seal, the gaskets, and the outer cover. Discard any damaged air filter elements.
There are two common methods that are used to clean primary air filter elements:
• Pressurized air
• Vacuum cleaning
Pressurized Air
Pressurized air can be used to clean the primary air filter element. Do not clean the primary air filter with pressurized air more than two times. Pressurized air will not remove deposits of carbon and oil. Use filtered, dry air with a maximum pressure of 207 kPa (30 psi).
Note: When the primary air filter elements are cleaned, always begin with the clean side (inside) to force dirt particles toward the dirty side (outside).
Aim the hose so that the air flows inside the element along the length of the filter to help prevent damage to the paper pleats. Do not aim the stream of air directly at the primary air filter element. Dirt could be forced further into the pleats.
Vacuum Cleaning
Vacuum cleaning is another method for cleaning primary air filter elements which require daily cleaning because of a dry, dusty environment. Cleaning with pressurized air is recommended prior to vacuum cleaning. Vacuum cleaning will not remove deposits of carbon and oil.
Inspecting the Primary Air Filter Elements
Illustration 2 g00281692
Illustration 3 g00281693
Inspect the clean, dry primary air filter element. Use a 60 watt blue light in a dark room or in a similar facility. Place the blue light in the primary air filter element. Rotate the primary air filter element. Inspect the primary air filter element for tears and/or holes. Inspect the primary air filter element for light that may show through the filter material. If it is necessary to confirm the result, compare the primary air filter element to a new primary air filter element that has the same part number.
Do not use a primary air filter element that has any tears and/or holes in the filter material. Do not use a primary air filter element with damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Discard damaged primary air filter elements.
Storing Primary Air Filter Elements
If a primary air filter element that passes inspection will not be used, the primary air filter element can be stored for future use.
Illustration 4 g00281694
Do not use paint, a waterproof cover, or plastic as a protective covering for storage. An air flow restriction may result. To protect against dirt and damage, wrap the primary air filter elements in Volatile Corrosion Inhibited (VCI) paper.
Place the primary air filter element into a box for storage. For identification, mark the outside of the box and mark the primary air filter element. Include the following information:
• Date of cleaning
• Number of cleanings
Store the box in a dry location.
