Rules For Refuelling And Adding Oil; Checking The Coolant Level In The Radiator; Using Lamps - Komatsu PC110R-1 Operation & Maintenance Manual

2.8.10 RULES FOR REFUELLING AND ADD-
ING OIL
• Keep away from naked flames while refuelling or adding oil.
• Spilled fuel or oil make the ground slippery and may cause acci-
dents; clean any dirty area immediately and carefully.
• Always tighten the fuel tank and the hydraulic circuit oil safety
caps securely.
• Do not use fuel to clean any part of the machine that is dirty
with oil or dust.
• Always top up the fuel and oil tanks in properly ventilated areas
and refrain from smoking.
• When refuelling, hold the fuel gun firmly and keep it constantly
in contact with the filler until you have finished, in order to avoid
sparks due to static electricity.
• Do not fill the tank completely, in order to leave room for the fuel
to expand.
2.8.11 CHECKING THE COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE RADIATOR
• Let the engine and the radiator cool down before checking the
coolant level.
• If it is necessary to remove the cap with hot engine, wear suita-
ble clothes and protections and loosen the cap slowly, in order
to release the pressure gradually.

2.8.12 USING LAMPS

• Use only homologated explosion-proof lamps to check fuel, oil,
coolant or battery electrolyte levels.
Unsuitable lamps can cause fires or explosions.
