Chapter 7 – Prestart Inspection
When the engine is cold, there should be about 1"

(2.5 cm) of coolant in the bottom of the reservoir.
When the engine is at operating temperature, the

coolant should be at the Hot level.
To inspect the coolant level:
Caution
Engine coolant escaping under pressure may cause
serious burns. Shut the engine off and let it cool
before removing the radiator cap.
1. Shut the engine off and wait for it to cool.
2. Check to make sure there is about 1" (2.5 cm) of
coolant in the bottom of the reservoir.
3. If necessary, remove the cap from the coolant res-
ervoir and add coolant. Tightly replace the cap.
Note
Refer to Chapter 2 for engine coolant specifications. The
need to regularly add fluid indicates a leak that should
be corrected.
Deutz engines are air cooled.
To inspect the air intake:
1. Visually inspect the air intake and fan (refer to Figure
7.3) to be sure they are free of obstructions that
could stop or slow the flow of air.

2. Inspect the fan belt to see that it is in place and not
cracked.

Radiator

To inspect the radiator:
1. Inspect the radiator hoses and clamps for wear,
leakage, or damage (refer to Figure 7.2).

2. Make sure the hoses are not hardened, cracked, or
feel spongy.
3. Make sure the cap is in place and tight.
4. Check under the chassis for coolant that has leaked.
Coolant leaks are easily visible on the ground.
5. Make sure the radiator core and ventilation open-
ings on the cover are free of bugs, dirt, or foreign
material that might restrict airflow.

Fuel Tank

The fuel level gauge is behind the doors on the right side
of the chassis (refer to Figure 7.4). The gauge shows
the actual level of fluid in the tank.
Fuel Gauge
Figure 7.4 – Fuel Tank
To inspect the fuel tank:
1. Open the doors on the right side of the chassis to
access the fuel gauge.
2. Check fuel level indicated on the gauge.
3. If necessary, remove the cap and add fuel.
Note
Refer to Chapter 2 for fuel grade specifications.
4. Make sure the cap is securely fastened.
Use the following procedure to change the LPG tank.
1. Close the shutoff valve (refer to Figure 7.5).
