1.6.3 Maintenance to be made daily or at 10 hours intervals
1.6.3.1 Do a check for the engine oil level
Procedure
1.
Stop the engine.
2.
Wait for approximately 15 minutes.
3.
Do a check for the oil level.
The oil level must be between the MAX and
MIN lines on the oil dipstick.
4.
Add oil, if necessary.
a) Clean the oil filler plug and the
surroundings.
b) Top up to the MAX line.
NOTE:
Overfill causes excessive oil splash in
the crankcase, which results in increased oil
consumption and malfunction in crankcase
ventilation system (CCV). Major engine damage can occur.

1.6.3.2 Check coolant level
The coolant level should be slightly above the radiator core.
The coolant level should be between the MAX and MIN lines if the system is provided with an expansion
tank.
Check the freezing point of the coolant before the cold season.
NOTE:
Never use only water as coolant but a mixture of 40 - 60 % of water and antifreeze. See the
information for coolant quality requirements.
NOTE:
The hot engine can be damaged if you pour cold coolant into it!
WARNING: It is dangerous to open the cap of the pressurised hot radiator!
If the coolant is hot, there is an overpressure in the system.
Open the radiator cap carefully.
1.6.3.3 Check for leakages
Find any leakage points (fuel, oil, coolant) and
eliminate them as soon as possible.
The coolant pump is provided with a telltale hole
on the left side. This hole must not be blocked. If
coolant drops out of the hole, the coolant pump
must immediately be repaired.
There may be a slight leakage on a new pump
before it has been run in.
