Checking the Hydraulic System
Before you start the engine and use the machine,
check the hydraulic system; refer to
Hydraulic Fluid (page
71).
Checking the Tire Air Pressure
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Check the tire air pressure in the tires to ensure
proper levels. Fill the tires to 138 kPa (20 psi).
Note:
Also, check the tires for wear or damage.
Checking the Brakes
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Before starting the sprayer, lightly press the brake
pedal. If the pedal travels more than 2.5 cm (1 inch)

If you operate the sprayer with poorly adjusted
or worn brakes, you could lose control of the
sprayer, resulting in serious injury or death
to you or bystanders.
Always check the brakes before operating the
sprayer and keep them properly adjusted and
repaired.
Adding Fuel
Important:
Purchase fuel in quantities that can
be used within 180 days to ensure fuel freshness.
Note:
Your engine may require a higher cetane-rated
fuel if you operate the machine at high altitudes or in
low atmospheric temperatures.
Never use kerosene or gasoline instead of diesel
fuel.
Never mix kerosene or used engine oil with the
diesel fuel.
Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels.
Petroleum Fuel Specification
Diesel fuel with a minimum cetane rating of 40.
Use low or ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel.
Use summer-grade diesel fuel (No. 2-D) at temperatures above
-7°C (20°F) and winter-grade fuel (No. 1-D or No. 1-D/2-D
blend) below that temperature.
Note:
Use of winter-grade fuel at lower temperatures
provides lower flash point and cold flow characteristics
which eases starting and reduces fuel filter plugging.
Checking the
70).
Using summer-grade fuel above -7°C (20°F)
contributes toward longer fuel pump life and increased
power compared to winter-grade fuel.
Biodiesel Fuel Specification
Use a biodiesel blended fuel of up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80%
petrodiesel).
The petroleum diesel portion must be low or ultra-low sulfur.
The biodiesel portion of the fuel must meet specification ASTM
D6751 or EN14214. The blended fuel composition should meet
ASTM D975 or EN590.
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends in cold
weather.
Observe the following precautions:
Fuel filter plugging may be expected for a time
after converting to biodiesel blends.
Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel
as they may be degraded over time.
Biodiesel blends may damage painted surfaces.
Contact your distributor if you wish for more
information on biodiesel.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 45 L (12 US
gallons).
