Kubota Z751KWi, Operator'S Manual

Page: 41 / 102

IMPORTANT :
• Do not operate unless the engine is well
warmed up. If operation is attempted while the
engine is still cold, the hydraulic mechanism
will not function properly and its service life will
be shortened.
• If noises are heard after you operate the motion
control levers, the hydraulic mechanism is not
adjusted properly. Unless corrected, the unit
will be damaged. Contact your local KUBOTA
Dealer for adjustment.
JUMP STARTING
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from
the battery.
• If the machine battery is frozen, do not jump
start the engine.
• Do not connect the other end of the negative
jumper cable to the negative terminal of the
machine battery.
When jump starting the engine, observe the following
instructions to start the engine safely:
1. Bring a helper vehicle with a battery of the same
voltage as the disabled machine within easy cable
reach.
IMPORTANT :
• The vehicles must not touch.
2. Apply the parking brakes of both vehicles and put
the shift levers in the neutral position. Shut the
engine off.
3. Put on safety goggles and rubber gloves.
4. Ensure that vent caps are securely in place (if
equipped).
5. Attach the red clamp to the positive (red, (+) or
pos.) terminal of the dead battery and clamp the
other end of the same cable to the positive (red, (+)
or pos.) terminal of the helper battery.
6. Clamp the other cable to the negative (black, (-) or
neg.) terminal of the helper battery.
7. Clamp the other end to the engine block or the
frame of the disabled machine as far from the dead
battery as possible.
8. Start the helper vehicle and let its engine run for a
few moments. Start the disabled machine.
9. Disconnect the jumper cables in the exact reverse
order of attachment (steps 7, 6 and 5).
Connect cables in numerical order.
Disconnect in reverse order after use.
(1) Dead battery
(2) Jumper cables
(3) Engine block or frame (4) Helper battery
IMPORTANT :
• This machine has a 12 V (volt) negative (-)
ground starting system.
• Use only same voltage for jump starting.
• Use of a higher voltage source on the
machine could result in severe damage to
the machine electrical system.
Use only a matching voltage source when
“jump starting” a low or dead battery.
