OPERATION
CHECK BEFORE STARTING
Perform the contents of this section before starting the work of each day.
CHECK COOLANT LEVEL, ADD COOLANT
Do not open the sub-Tank cap unless necessary. Wait for the engine to cool down before checking the coolant in the Reservoir
tank.
Immediately after the engine is stopped, the coolant is at a high temperature and the sub-tank is under high internal pressure.
If the cap is removed to check the coolant level in this condition, there is a hazard of burns. Wait for the temperature to go
down, then turn the cap slowly to release the pressure before removing it.
1. Open the engine hood and check that the coolant in reservoir
tank (1) is between the FULL and LOW marks.
2. If the level is LOW, remove cap (2) and add the engine coolant
up to the FULL mark.
3. If there is no coolant in the Reservoir tank, add water to the
sub-tank through water filler (3) at the top of the sub-tank, then
add water to the Reservoir tank.
4. Check that there is no oil in the engine coolant or any other
problem.
5. After adding coolant, tighten the cap securely.
6. If more coolant is added than normal, then check for water
leakage.
CHECK DUST INDICATOR
1. Check that the red line in the transparent portion of dust
indicator (1) does not indicate 7.5 kPa (30 INCHES H
2
(0.076 kg/cm
, 1.1 PSI).
2. If the red line indicates 7.5 kPa (30 INCHES H
2
, 1.1 PSI), clean or replace the air cleaner element
immediately.
For details of the method of cleaning the element, see
