Checking Engine Oil Level
CAUTION
• Be sure to stop the engine before checking the oil level.
1. Park the machine on a flat surface.
2. Check engine oil before starting the engine or 5 minutes or more
after the engine has stopped.
3. To check the oil level, draw out the dipstick, wipe it clean, replace
it, and draw it out again. Check to see that the oil level lies
between the two notches.
If the level is too low, add new oil to the prescribed level at the oil
inlet. (See page G-9.)
IMPORTANT
• When using an oil of different maker or viscosity from the
previous one, remove all of the old oil.
Never mix two different types of oil.
• If oil level is low, do not run engine.
(1) Oil Inlet
(2) Dipstick
Checking Transmission Fluid Level
1. Park the machine on a flat surface, lower the implement and shut
off the engine.
2. To check the oil level, draw out the dipstick, wipe it clean, replace
it, and draw it out again. Check to see that the oil level lies
between the two notches.
If the level is too low, add new oil to the prescribed level at the oil
inlet. (See page G-9.)

Checking Coolant Level
CAUTION
• Do not remove radiator cap while coolant is hot. When cool,
slowly rotate cap to the first stop and allow sufficient time
for excess pressure to escape before removing the cap
completely.
1. Check to see that the coolant level is between the "FULL" and
"LOW" marks of recovery tank.
2. When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add water only
up to the full level.
In case of leakage, add anti-freeze and water in the specified
mixing ratio up to the full level. (See page G-9.)
IMPORTANT
• If the radiator cap has to be removed, follow the caution
above and securely retighten the cap.
• Use clean, fresh water and anti-freeze to fill the recovery
tank.
