EPLACING IR LEANER
If the air cleaner is not in good condition, the lifetime of
the engine can be shortened, excessive soot can be
produced, and the engine power can be deteriorated.
Therefore, the filter should be inspected frequently. Its
replacement interval can be changed according to
driving conditions. Replace the filter according to the
following procedure.
Figure 13-15
1. Check the suction hose and air cleaner housing for
damage.
2. Unscrew the air cleaner clip and remove the cover
(#2).
3. Clean the inside of the air cleaner housing by
blowing compressed air through it.
4. Replace the filter (#1) and check the housing for
damage.
5. Install the cover and fix it with the clip.
NOTE: When installing the cover, make sure that the
dust collection valve (#3) is heading downward.
CAUTION!
• Use only a genuine KIOTI filter. Use of a non-
recommended filter can cause damage to the engine
and sensor.
• Make sure that no dust enters the system by
installing the cover firmly.
• When removing the filter, be careful not to let foreign
material enter the air inlet.

HECKING ADIATOR
Check to ensure the radiator hoses are free from
damage and are tightened properly every 200 hours or
every 6 months, whichever comes first.

1. If the hose clamps are loose or water leaks from
hose (#4), tighten clamps securely.
2. If the radiator hoses are swollen, hardened, racked,
or otherwise damaged, you must replace the hoses.
Failure to do so could lead to coolant loss and engine
damage.
It is a good practice to replace the radiator hoses every
two years.
P
RECAUTION AT
Take the following actions in the event the coolant
2
temperature reaches the boiling point, what is called
"Over-heating".
1. Stop the machine in a safe place and keep the
engine idling.
2. After 5 minutes of unloaded idling, shut the engine
down.
3. Keep yourself away from the tractor for another 10
minutes or until steam has stopped blowing out of the
engine.
4. Make sure that there is no danger and repair the
cause of the overheating according to the manual's
instruction. (Make sure to refer to "Engine
troubleshooting" in chapter 18 before starting the
engine)
T
IRES AND
Original equipment tires are tubeless.
An axle cover may be installed on the front or rear
wheels. This plastic cover is retained by a washer. To
remove, gently pry the cover off the axle end. Front
wheels are retained by a retaining clip. When
replacing the wheels, clean the axle end of any debris.
It is recommended to apply a light coat of grease to
axle ends to reduce rusting.
It is strongly recommended to replace both tires on an
axle (front or rear) at the same time. Wear can alter
tire diameter significantly resulting in uneven level of
tractor and uneven cut if not corrected.
