Engine Oil
Checking Oil Level - Check Daily
The engine oil level is electronically monitored, if
low it is displayed via the icon on the Information
Bar of the JVM. The oil level can be manually
checked using the dipstick (A). The recommended
oil is shown in the lubrication chart at the end of
this chapter.
Checking Coolant Level - Check Daily
The coolant level (B) is electronically monitored,
if low it is displayed via the icon on the Information
Bar of the JVM. Ensure the engine is cool before
topping up the level.
Cold Weather Precautions
The cooling system must be filled with equal quantities of antifreeze and water to maintain a
minimum concentration of 50%, i.e. -39°C. Any top ups must therefore be done with a 50% mixture
of antifreeze and water. The concentration level should be checked at the 500 hour service interval
as failure to observe this can cause corrosion of the engine block.
'Z' Drive Gearbox
Checking Oil Level
The level plug (B) should be removed and filled
to the bottom of the thread. The window (A)
allows a quick reference and, if the oil level is not
visible on the window, the level requires topping
up.
