Checking the Engine-Oil Level
Before you start the engine and use the machine, check
the oil level in the engine crankcase; refer to
Checking the
Engine-Oil Level (page 47) .
Checking the Cooling System
Before you start the engine and use the machine, check the
cooling system; refer to
Checking the Cooling System (page
55) .
Checking the Hydraulic
System
Before you start the engine and use the machine, check the
hydraulic system; refer to
Checking the Hydraulic Fluid (page
58) .
Draining the Water Separator
Drain water or other contaminants from the water separator;
refer to
Servicing the Water Separator (page 49) .
Filling the Fuel Tank
Recommended Fuel
Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels with low or
ultra-low (<15 ppm) sulfur content. The minimum cetane
rating should be 40. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be
used within 180 days to ensure fuel freshness.
Fuel tank capacity: 79 L (21 US gallons)
Use summer-grade diesel fuel (Number 2-D) at temperatures
above -7°C (20°F) and winter-grade diesel fuel (Number 1-D
or Number 1-D/2-D blend) below -7°C (20°F ). Use of
winter-grade fuel at lower temperatures provides a lower flash
point and cold-flow characteristics which will ease starting
and reduce fuel-filter plugging.
Use of summer-grade fuel above -7°C (20°F) will contribute
toward longer fuel-pump life and increased power compared
to winter-grade fuel.
Important:
Do not use kerosene or gasoline instead of
diesel fuel. Failure to observe this caution will damage
the engine.
Biodiesel Ready
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel of up
to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel). The petrodiesel
portion should be low or ultra-low sulfur. Observe the
following precautions:
•
The biodiesel portion of the fuel must meet specification
ASTM D6751 or EN14214.
•
The blended fuel composition should meet ASTM D975
or EN590.
•
Painted surfaces may be damaged by biodiesel blends.
•
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends in cold
weather.
•
Monitor seals, hoses, and gaskets in contact with fuel as
they may be degraded over time.
•
Fuel-filter plugging may be expected for a time after
converting to biodiesel blends.
•
Contact your distributor if you wish for more information
on biodiesel.

Note:
If possible, fill the fuel tank after each use; this
minimizes possible buildup of condensation inside the fuel
tank.
