10. ANTI-FREEZE & DISPOSAL OF FLUIDS
A Anti-freeze contains poison. Wear rubber gloves to avoid personal
injury. In case of contact with skin, wash it off immediately.
A DO NOT mix different types of Anti-freeze. The mixture can produce
chemical reaction causing harmful substances. Use approved or
genuine KUBOTA Anti-freeze.
A Be mindful of the environment and the ecology. Before draining any
fluids, find out the correct way of disposing of them. Observe the
relevant environmental protection regulations when disposing of oil, fuel,
coolant, brake fluid, filters and batteries.
A When draining fluids from the engine, place some container underneath
the engine body.
A DO NOT pour waste onto the grounds, down a drain, or into any water
source.
11. CONDUCTING SAFETY CHECKS & MAINTENANCE
A When checking engine or servicing, place the engine on a wide and level
ground. DO NOT work on anything that is supported ONLY by lift jacks
or a hoist. Always use blocks or correct stands to support the engine
before servicing.
A Detach the battery from the engine before conducting service. Put a "DO
NOT OPERATE!" tag in the key switch to avoid accidental starting.
A To avoid sparks from an accidental short circuit always disconnect the
battery's ground cable (-) first and connect it last.
A Be sure to stop the engine and remove the key when conducting daily
and periodic maintenance, servicing and cleaning.
A Check or conduct maintenance after the engine, coolant, muffler, or
muffler cover have been cooled off completely.
A Always use the appropriate tools and jig-fixture in good condition when
performing any service work. Make sure you understand how to use
them before service.
A Use ONLY correct engine barring techniques for manually rotating the
engine. DO NOT attempt to rotate the engine by pulling or prying on the
cooling fan and V-belt. This practise can cause serious personal injury
or premature machine damage to the cooling fan.
A Replace fuel pipes and lubricant pipes with their hose clamps every 2
years or earlier whether they are damaged or not. They are made of
rubber and are aged gradually.
A When servicing is performed together by two or more persons, take care
to perform all work safely.
A Keep first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy at all times.
