Maintenance Interval Schedule - C-10 Industrial Engines

SMCS - 1000; 7500

S/N - BCX1-UP

Operating conditions and oil API Classifications will determine the amount of service hours
for the PM Level 1 Maintenance Interval Schedule. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual,
"Engine Oil and Filter - Change" for your specific oil change interval.

Note: Ensure that the Safety Information, warnings, and instructions are read and understood before
operation or maintenance procedures are performed.

Note: Use fuel consumption, service hours, or calendar time, whichever occurs first , in order to
determine the maintenance intervals. Engines that operate in severe operating conditions may require
more frequent maintenance.

Before each consecutive interval is performed, all of the maintenance requirements from the
previous interval must also be performed.
