Engine Oil; Coolant - Kubota GL7000-CAN Operator's Manual

A DO NOT use or charge the battery if the fluid
level is below the LOWER (lower limit level)
mark.
Otherwise, the battery component parts may
deteriorate prematurely, shorten the battery's
service life; which may cause an explosion.
Immediately, add distilled water until the
battery's fluid level comes somewhere between
the UPPER and LOWER levels.
A Keep all sparks and flames away from the
battery and fuel tank. A battery, especially
when charging, will give off hydrogen and
oxygen gases which can explode and cause
serious personal injury.
1. Remove the vent plugs.
2. Check the battery fluid level and add distilled water if
the level is lower than "LOW" line.
3. Replace the vent plugs.
4. Charge the battery at the constant charging rate of 6.0
amperes.
5. When the specific gravity of electrolyte falls between
1.27 and 1.29, charge has completed.
6. Wash off any electrolyte which may have spilled.
7. When replacing an old battery for a new one, use a
battery of equal specification.
(1) Vent plug opening
(2) Electrolyte level indication tube
(3) Indicated level
A The duration of charged battery efficiency will
decrease in proportion to the period of time elapsed
after shipment and during storage. To obtain the
longest service life of the battery, it is necessary for the
battery to be charged for a sufficient period of time.
Continue to charge until all cells are gassing freely,
and the voltage and specific gravity reading in all cells
remain constant for 3 or more successive readings
taken at 30 minute intervals.
A When the battery has been charged fully, the specific
gravity of electrolyte should be 1.270 to 1.290 (at 20
= 68 ).
(A) Upper level
(B) Lower level
PRE-OPERATION CHECK
BEngine Oil
The generator has been shipped without engine oil.
Fill with oil to the correct level before attempting to
start the engine.
1. Place the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the oil cap.
3. Add engine oil of grade CF or higher, up to the upper
mark on the oil level gauge.
A See "ENGINE OIL" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section
for engine oil capacity and checking engine oil level.
BCoolant
To avoid personal injury:
A Place the machine on a level surface.
A DO NOT remove the radiator cap while coolant
is hot. When cool, rotate the radiator cap slowly
to the first stop to allow excess pressure to
escape. Then remove cap completely.
1. Remove the radiator cap and fill with specified coolant
until the coolant level is just below the port.
2. Fill with coolant to the "FULL" mark on the reserve
tank.
3. Securely tighten radiator cap and reserve tank cap.
A See "RADIATOR" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section
for changing coolant.
