Default Oil change

That's the way we do them downunder, Bob - turn 'em over to loosen the plug then go right way up to drain whatever didn't come out the top.

I think Bob is right, looks like it has to be flat in line with the bumper underneath as this pic of cab 12 26581 shows.
Great pic Keith.....especially as it also ads to the discussion on orientation of tyres!

I did however find a gem that I will make a copy of and return to Max. Although as I was leaving there seemed to be a change of heart from the owner.
"Run Forrest....run..". Tony, I think either Phil W. or Dave Pope once posted a high res scan of the plate on the forum. Not that you need it now you have the one from Max
