9. CHECK AND MAINTENANCE

9.1 DAILY CHECK

For your own safety and maximum service life of the
machine, make a thorough daily inspection before op-
erating the machine to start the engine.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Be sure to check and service the tractor on a flat
place with the engine shut off and the parking
brake "ON".
A. CHECKING AND REFUELING
Item
Fuel tank capacity
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Do not smoke while refueling.
• Be sure to stop the engine before refueling.
1. Turn the key switch to "ON", check the amount of
fuel showing on the fuel gauge.
2. Fill fuel tank when the fuel gauge shows 1/4 or less
fuel in the tank.
3. Use No.2-Diesel fuel at all temperatures above -
10°C (14°F).
IMPORTANT
• Do not permit dirt or trash to get into the fuel
system.
• Be careful not to let the fuel tank become empty,
otherwise air will enter the fuel system, requiring
the fuel system to be bled before next engine start.
• Be careful not to spill during refueling. If a spill
should occur, wipe it off at once. Fuel on the trac-
tor may cause a fire.
• To prevent condensation (water) accumulation in
the fuel tank, fill the tank before parking the trac-
tor overnight.
