See the LUBRICATION chapter of this manual for the
proper oil specification. Replace the oil level check/fill
plug.
Planetary Hubs
NOTE:
The planetary hubs can be checked with-
out jacking up the machine.
See illustrations below. The planetary hubs have one
plug each used for filling and draining. For checking
the level and filling, position the Wheel until the arrow
points down. Remove the plug. If oil does not run out,
add oil until it flows from the hole. Check the remain-
ing hubs the same way. Refer to the oil specifications
found in the LUBRICATION chapter of this manual.
CHANGE FUEL FILTER
The frequency of filter replacement will be determined
by the cleanliness of available fuel, the care used in
storing fuel supplies and the operating conditions in
which the machine is used.
NOTE:
For proper replacement procedures refer
to the engine manual for your machine.
After fuel filter replacement, bleed the air out of the
fuel system following the procedures in the engine
manual.
Fuel Bleeding Procedures
When the fuel filter is removed and replaced, or the
engine runs out of fuel, air must be bled from the sys-
tem. Refer to the engine manual relative to proper
bleeding procedures.
If the engine still will not start, consult your nearest
authorized engine dealer.
NOTE:
Only an authorized engine dealer can
perform WARRANTY Service on the engine.
Diesel Fuel Injectors
Whenever faulty or plugged injectors are indicated, see
your nearest authorized engine dealer.
Diesel Injection Pump Timing
Whenever injection pump timing, or other pump ser-
vice is indicated by abnormal engine operation, contact
your nearest engine dealer.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL AND FILTER
Change the engine oil and filter using the following
procedure:
1. With the engine warm, remove the crankcase drain
plug. Some plugs are equipped with a magnet to gath-
er metal particles. Completely clean and flush away all
metallic filings from the plug and re-install it.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT discharge oil onto the
ground. Catch and dispose of per local waste dis-
posal regulations.
2. The engine oil filter should be changed at every oil
change interval. Remove and discard the throw away
filter canister. Wipe the gasket sealing area of the block
with a clean cloth.
NOTE:
Your OEM engine oil filters have special
by-pass valves built in. Use only genuine OEM
engine replacement filters.
3. Apply a thin coat of clean oil to the new oil filter
gasket and spin tighten. Refill the crankcase with new
oil. Follow specifications in the LUBRICATION chap-
ter for type and viscosity of new oil to put in.
WARNING
NEVER service the fuel system while smok-
ing, while near an open flame, or after the
engine has been operated and is hot.
WARNING
Escaping diesel fuel under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate the skin. Before
applying pressure to the fuel system, BE
SURE all connections are tight and lines and
hoses are NOT damaged. Use a piece of wood
or cardboard to search for suspected leaks. If
injured by escaping fuel, see a doctor familiar
with this type of injury at once or gangrene
may result.
