Kubota Diesel Engine

General Information

This Chapter gives information about specifications and

repair of the diesel engine used in the Reelmaster

3550--D.

General maintenance procedures are described in your

Traction Unit Operator’s Manual. Information on engine

troubleshooting, testing, disassembly and assembly is

identified in the Kubota Workshop Manual: 05 Series

Diesel Engine.

Most repairs and adjustments require tools which are

commonly available in many service shops. Special

tools are described in the Kubota Workshop Manual: 05

Series Diesel Engine. The use of some specialized test

equipment is explained. However, the cost of the test

equipment and the specialized nature of some repairs

may dictate that the work be done at an engine repair fa-

cility.

Service and repair parts for Kubota engines are sup-

plied through your Authorized Toro Distributor. If no

parts list is available, be prepared to provide your distrib-

utor with the Toro model and serial number.

Operator’s Manual

The Traction Unit and Engine Operator’s Manuals pro-

vide information regarding the operation, general main-

tenance and maintenance intervals for your Reelmaster

machine. Refer to these publications for additional infor-

mation when servicing the machine.
