LCR Recommendations :
Viscosity @ 40 deg.C value is on the higher side so that it is recommended to drain 30 ltrs of old oil and
refill with same quantity of fresh oil to regain viscosity levels. Filter the oil after the above maintenance
action to extend the life of the oil. This high viscosity is due to improper functioning of air breather
so that check and clean the air breather by applying compressed oil to prevent high viscosity levels.
