16-3. Confirmation after adjustment
18-1. Hoisting
Stop the engine and move the respective levers to check for interference.
Check that the machine is in the neutral position and will not move even if the
engine is in the full-throttle state.
(When the side brake lever is pulled and returned)
After moving the traveling lever to move the machine, release the traveling lever,
and check that the machine will not move.
After the above-mentioned adjustment, confirm the following:
17. Engine
(JIS No.2 diesel oil)
a) Use the low sulfur or ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (JIS No.2 diesel).
b) The machine is to be operated under severe condition such as vibration, slopes,
and dust. Change the entire engine oil 10 hours after the initial operation. Then
while continuing inspection and replenishment before use, change the entire
quantity every 100 hours thereafter.
Change all the oil filters simultaneously as well.
When using the machine in a dusty place, change oil and the oil filters more
frequency.
The quantity of the engine oil is 5.5 liters. Use the diesel engine oil in the service
class CD or above specified by the API standard.
c) When air is sucked in the fuel system of a diesel engine, the engine will not be
started. Inspect and maintain the diesel engine at all times to prevent entry
of air into the fuel system. Operation will be difficult when the fuel filter and
electromagnetic pump filter are clogged with dust or when water remains in them.
Drain water or clean filters every 50 hours. Replace filters with new ones every
200 hours.
d) Keep a pre-cleaner attached to the suction port of the air cleaner at all times
during operation. Be sure to clean the dust cup before operation.
e) Mix antiseptics (long-life coolant) into water, and put the mixture in the reserve
tank up to the MAX position as a radiator cooling water. Change the cooling water
every 50 hours. Check and supply the cooling water before operation. When the
temperature is likely to drop below the freezing point, use an antifreeze mixture.
When the radiator fins are clogged with dust, blow air to clean them.
Refer to the diesel engine operation manual for the method of handling
the engine.
There is a risk of a skin burn. Do not open the radiator cap during or right after
operation.
18. Hoisting and jacking up the machine
Precautions as to hoisting
a) Qualification necessary to use a crane to hoist the machine
For hoisting the machine, follow the appropriate laws of the country where it is
hoisted.
b) Hoisting procedure
Lower the mower portion until it touches the ground.
Pull out the four hoisting hooks and secure them with pins. Hook the wire ropes
completely with shackles. Use wire ropes with sufficient strength. Be sure to
use four ropes of 2.5 m or more in length.
Pay attention to the position of the center of gravity during hoisting to balance
the machine sufficiently. Do not approach the machine inadvertently during
hoisting.

When lowering the machine, keep the machine horizontally and lower it in a
manner that the crawlers at right and left will touch the ground at the same time.
Impact applied to the traveling motor (sprocket) at that time will cause failure.
