HANDLING OIL, FUEL, COOLANT, AND PERFORMING OIL CLINIC
Oil
Oil is used in the engine and hydraulic equipment under extremely severe conditions (high temperature, high
pressure), and deteriorates with use.
Always use oil that matches the grade and maximum and minimum ambient temperatures recommended in the
Operation and Maintenance Manual. Even if the oil is not dirty, always change the oil at the specified interval.
Oil corresponds to blood in the human body, always be careful when handling it to prevent any impurities (water,
metal particles, dirt, etc.) from getting in.
The majority of problems with the machine are caused by the entry of such impurities.
Take particular care not to let any impurities get in when storing or adding oil.
Never mix oils of different grades or brands.
Always add the specified amount of oil.
Having too much oil or too little oil are both causes of problems.
If the oil in the work equipment is not clear, there is probably water or air getting into the circuit. In such cases,
please contact your Komatsu distributor.
When changing the oil, always replace the related filters at the same time.
We recommend you have an analysis made of the oil periodically to check the condition of the machine. For
those who wish to use this service, please contact your Komatsu distributor.
When using commercially available oil, it may be necessary to shorten the oil change interval.
For this reason, we recommend making full use of the Komatsu oil clinic.
Fuel
After completing the day's operations, fill the fuel tank to force out any air containing moisture. This will prevent
the moisture from condensing and mixing with the fuel.
The fuel pump is a precision instrument, and if fuel containing water or dirt is used, it cannot work properly.
Be extremely careful not to let impurities get in when storing or adding fuel.
Always use the fuel specified in the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Fuel may congeal depending on the temperature when it is used (particularly in low temperature below -15
°
C (5
°
F)). It is necessary to use the fuel that is suitable for the temperature.
Before starting the engine, or when 10 minutes have passed after adding fuel, drain the sediment and water from
the fuel tank.
If the engine runs out of fuel, or if the filters have been replaced, it is necessary to bleed the air from the circuit.
If there is any foreign material in the fuel tank, wash the tank and fuel system.
Cooling System Coolant
River water contains large amount of calcium and other impurities, so if it is used, scale will stick to the engine and
radiator, and this will cause defective heat exchange and overheating.
Do not use water that is not suitable for drinking.
When using antifreeze, always observe the precautions given in the Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Komatsu machines are supplied with Komatsu original anti-freeze in the coolant when the machine is shipped.
This anti-freeze is effective in preventing corrosion of the cooling system.
The anti-freeze can be used continuously for two years or 4000 hours. Therefore, it can be used as it is even in
hot areas.
Antifreeze is flammable, so be extremely careful not to expose it to flame or fire.
The proportion of anti-freeze to water differs according to the ambient temperature.
For details of the mixing proportions, see "CLEAN INSIDE OF COOLING SYSTEM (PAGE 4-20)".
If the engine overheats, wait for the engine to cool before adding coolant.
