Inspection Procedures
(1) Engine Oil
[Check]
With the machine horizontal, pull out the
oil gauge, wipe the tip with a clean cloth
and put back the gauge, and pull it out
again to check the oil level. If oil is at the
LOWER level or below, add oil to the
specified level.
(Check the oil level before the engine is
started or at least 5 minute after the engine
has stopped.)
[Change]
Remove the drain plug, drain oil, and fill
new engine oil.
[Engine oil]
SAE10W-30 API CF grade
for diesel engine
[Amount of oil]
3.0 L
[When to change] Initial change:
50 hours
Periodic change: Every 100 hours
Used oil can be drained easily when the engine is hot.
Caution
⚫
When draining oil, exercise caution not to get
burned. Do not touch any of the parts directly
with your hand.
⚫
Oil filter cartridge
Replace every 150 hours (or after 50 hours
initially).
⚫
The oil filter is of cartridge type, so remove the entire
case with a filter wrench and replace it with a new
one.
⚫
After the new oil filter has been assembled, operate
the engine to check for leakage of oil.
⚫
After the oil change, stop the engine after (5 minutes
of) idling, wait for 10 to 20 minutes and then check
the oil level. If there is not enough oil, add oil.
(2) Air Cleaner
Caution
⚫
Be sure to remove and clean the air cleaner
element before operating the machine.
⚫
To clean the element, spray air (0.7 MPa or less)
onto the inner side of the element or shake the
element gently to remove dust.
⚫
Replace the element once a year.
⚫
When installing the cup, be sure to assemble with
the
“top” side facing up.
