Checking Gear Locked Parking Brake
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Do not dismount the machine while checking
the parking brake.
Confirm the machine (wheel loader unit only) can surely
be parked on the slope of about 15 degrees (Slope that
rises by 2.7 meters every 10 meters).
If the machine moves, consult your local KUBOTA Dealer.
Always engage the parking brake before dismounting the
wheel loader.
B Checking the disc brake
1. Actuate the inching and brake pedal during operation
so that the machine’s disc brake brakes.
2. If the brake fails to work effectively, it must be adjusted
by your KUBOTA dealer.
B
Checking and cleaning engine and
electrical wiring
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Always stop the engine and remove the key
before cleaning the wiring, cables and engine.
Before starting, check whether flammable substances
have gathered on the battery, the cables and wiring, the
muffler or on the engine. Remove thoroughly.
Check the electrical circuitry for disconnections, shorts or
loose terminals.
B
Checking V-belt
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Stop the engine and remove the key before
checking the V-belt.
Check the V-belt for cracks and proper tension. (See
"Checking fan belt tension" in "EVERY 250 HOURS
SERVICE" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section.)
B
Washing whole machine
A Do not wash the machine with the engine running.
Water could enter the air cleaner and damage the
engine.
Make sure that the air cleaner is kept dry.
A Remove the mud before washing the machine.
B
Draining water separator
1. Open the engine cover.
2. When the separated water is entering the sediment
cup, the red float moves upwards.
When the float reaches the line, close the shutoff-
valve so that no fuel can run out. Now loosen the ring
nut, and remove the cup and empty completely.
3. Finally, do not forget to open the shutoff-valve after the
cup has been reinstalled.
A
If the water separator is full with water, it means that
there may be water in the fuel filter. In such case, drain
the fuel filter.
(See "Draining the fuel filter" in "SERVICE AS
REQUIRED" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section.)
