Engine - Engine and Mounting
Engine (1) Oil Level Check - Position the vehicle on a
level work area, apply the parking brake, shut off the
engine and wait at least five minutes (to allow oil to
drain to the oil pan) before checking the oil level. The
oil level should be between the low (L) and high (H)
marks on the dipstick. Add oil if low. Refer to Section
300-0020, LUBRICATION SYSTEM for oil
specification.
Note:
Never operate the engine with oil level below the
low (L) or above the high (H) mark on the dipstick.
Fuel Filter/Water Separator (4) -
Drain the water and
sediment from the separator daily. Position the vehicle
on a level work area, apply the parking brake, shut off
the engine and, with a suitable container below the
drain valve to catch spillage, open the drain valve by
hand. Turn the valve anticlockwise approximately
1.5 - 2 turns until draining occurs. Drain the filter sump
until clear fuel is visible. Turn the valve clockwise to
close the drain valve.
Note: Do not overtighten the drain valve as
overtightening can damage the threads.
Cooling System - Check coolant level add if low - Add
coolant to the top of the filler neck.
Drive Belts -
Visually inspect all drive belts daily.
Replace belts that are cracked or frayed and adjust
belts that have a glazed or shiny surface which
indicates belt slippage. Correctly installed and
tensioned belts will show even pulley and belt wear.
