CHECKING FUEL TANK LEVEL
After operation each day, the fuel tank should be filled
to prevent water from condensing in the tank. To fill,
remove the filler cap and add fuel.
CHECKING FUEL FILTER/WATER SEP-
ARATOR
Visually check the fuel filter/water separator for water
and deris. Drain the filter/separator if water is present
following the draining procedure in the 50 hour service
interval.
CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
With the machine on level ground, and the engine
stopped for ten minutes or more, open the right side
engine cover and remove the engine dipstick. Wipe it
clean, re-insert it and remove to obtain a reading. If the
oil level is down, or below the ADD mark, fill with the
required amount of oil to bring the level to the FULL
mark. See the
Lubrication chapter for the type of oil to
use.
CHECKING COOLANT LEVEL
Check the coolant level before starting the machine the
first time every day. With the machine on level ground,
open the engine cover. Check that the coolant in the
coolant expansion tank is between the Full and Add
marks on the tank.
If the coolant is below the Add mark on the tank,
remove the cap and add a low-silicate ethylene glycol
based coolant mixed with quality water and supple-
mental coolant additives (SCAs) suitable for heavy-
duty diesel engines to the coolant expansion tank. See
the engine manual for additional information. Replace
the cap securely.
NOTE: The coolant system is designed for
coolant top-off only through the expansion tank.
Do not add coolant directly to the radiator.
CHECKING RADIATOR FOR DEBRIS
With the machine on level ground, open the engine
cover. Remove the rear radiator cover by turning the
two quarter turn latches counter-clockwise. Remove
the cover by lifting up and to the rear. If necessary,
clean the radiator fins of debris by blowing com-
pressed air or water through the radiator fins from
either side of the radiator.
It may be best to clean as much as possible by blowing
from the inside of the radiator first, then blowing from
the outside of the radiator until the air or water is free
of dirt and debris.
IMPORTANT: Use caution when cleaning the
radiator. High pressure air or water may bend
radiator fins which will reduce the radiator cooling
capacity.
WARNING
DO NOT remove the radiator cap when the
engine is running hot or overheated. Coolant
is extremely hot and under pressure and it can
burn your skin.
IMPORTANT
Water in the fuel system can cause severe
engine damage. Drain water from the fuel fil-
ter/water separator anytime water is present.
