10. ANTI-FREEZE & DISPOSAL OF FLUIDS
A Anti-freeze contains poison. Wear rubber gloves to
avoid personal injury. In case of contact with skin, wash
it off immediately.
A DO NOT mix different types of Anti-freeze. The mixture
can produce a chemical reaction causing harmful
substances. Use approved or genuine KUBOTA Anti-
freeze.
A Be mindful of the environment and the ecology. Before
draining any fluids, determine the correct way to dispose
of them. Observe the relevant environmental protection
regulations when disposing of oil, fuel, coolant, brake
fluid, filters and batteries.
A When draining fluids from the engine, place a suitable
container underneath the engine body.
A
DO NOT pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or
into any water source. Dispose of waste fluids according
to environmental regulations.
11. CONDUCTING SAFETY CHECKS & MAINTENANCE
A
When inspecting the engine or servicing, place the
engine on a large flat surface. DO NOT work on
anything that is supported ONLY by lift jacks or a hoist.
Always use blocks or the correct stands to support the
engine before servicing.
A Disconnect the battery from the engine before
conducting service. Put a "DO NOT OPERATE!" tag on
the key switch to avoid accidental starting.
A To avoid sparks from an accidental short circuit always
disconnect the battery's ground cable (-) first and
reconnect it last.
A
Be sure to stop the engine and remove the key when
conducting daily and periodic maintenance, service and
cleaning.
A
Check or conduct maintenance after the engine,
coolant, muffler, or muffler cover have cooled off
completely.
A Always use the appropriate tools and fixtures. Verify that
they are in good condition before performing any service
work. Make sure you understand how to use them
before service.
A Use ONLY correct engine barring techniques for
manually rotating the engine. DO NOT attempt to rotate
the engine by pulling or prying on the cooling fan and V-
belt. This practice can cause serious personal injury or
premature damage to the cooling fan and belt.
