3.Operation 3.2 Lubricating oil / Coolant / Fuel / DEF 3.2.1 Engine oil Use engine oil recommended by us. (Using engine oil with poor quality may shorten the life of the engine) Classification API service classification CJ-4 class or higher Viscosity SAE10W-30 (as ex-factory) ...
Page 19
3.Operation 3.2.3 Coolant Use coolant that is a mixture of LLC (antifreeze) and soft water of good quality such as tap water. If you use water mixed with soil, sand, or dust, or soft water such as well water (ground water), water will easily accumulate in the coolant channels of the engine and radiator, leading to an increase in the coolant temperature.
Page 20
3.Operation 3.2.5 DEF DEF (AdBlue or equivalent) is transparent, colorless, and non-hazardous. In some circumstances, DEF will put off odor, but this is normal and not indicative of any problems. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of 15 minutes.
3.Operation 3.3 Check before starting machine Be sure to check the machine before operation. When any abnormality is found, be sure to repair it before restarting the machine.
