Where is the oil filler port located on a forklift?

The oil filler port on a forklift is generally located on the left side of the engine. Here are the relevant instructions: When performing routine operations such as changing the oil, and needing to reinstall the oil filler cap, use the oil on the dipstick to lubricate the cap opening, then smoothly tighten it in the clockwise direction until it's properly seated. The amount of oil added should be slightly below the standard mark. Adding too much oil (exceeding the upper limit on the dipstick) can have the opposite effect. Excessive oil increases the rotational resistance of the crankshaft, reduces the engine's output power, and the excess oil may enter the combustion chamber, leading to oil burning, blue smoke emission, and increased fuel consumption.
