TEF20 Oil service

Post by Roadknight »

Hi,

I need to replace the engine oil in my ferguson TEF20 but don't know how to take the oil filler cap off. It seems to be springloaded but I do not want to remove it by force if there is another way to do so. I can't find any other information online or even in the Instruction book on how to do this.

Thanks.

I think if you lift it a little and move it to one side, it has a sort of hook shaped fitting underneath which allows the lid to lock on to the side of the filler neck without removing it.
What could possibly go wrong?

A better description would be that the lid flips through 90deg., so the spring still holds it captive but the lid is out of the way.
I've just had a good search around and found this video, lid action at 7:10.
