IN COLD WEATHER

When using the truck in a cold weather, special care should be
taken more than when using it in a hot weather.
Caution to be taken when adding fuel
CAUTION
When adding fuel, make sure to shut down the engine.
Never smoke.
Add fuel up to the upper limit of the tank. This will help prevent the
freezing of water content contained in the air inside the tank or the
fuel system from corroding, which makes it difficult for the engine
to start.
NOTE
Make sure the fuel cap is securely tightened.
(A loose cap will allow rain water or snow to enter the fuel tank.)

Handling LLC
• The LLC is flammable. Do not use open flame when
adding, changing or storing it.
• The LLC is poisonous. (Lethal dose: 100 cc). Do not
swallow it. If anyone swallowed it accidentally, induce
vomiting immediately and get medical attention.
• When storing, put a sign "Dangerous substance" and
keep it out of reach of children.
Frozen cooling water might damage the engine or radiator.
When the ambient temperature is anticipated to be below 0°C,
add anti-freeze into the cooling water. If you do not use anti-
freeze, make sure to remove all the cooling water after the day's
work. When the truck has a label given at the right, it uses cooling
water containing 50% LLC (Long Life Coolant). If this is the case,
there is no need to change the cooling water for 2 years. When
addition of cooling water is needed, use cooling water containing
one part of water and one part of LLC.
