Fan Belt Tension
A slack fan belt may contribute to overheating, or to
insufficient charging of the battery. Inspect and adjust it in
accordance with the
KUBOTA
engine manual.
The fan belt tension is proper if the fan belt (Figure 5) bends
7 to 9 mm (0.28- to 0.35) when depressed with the thumb as
shown in Figure 8 below.
CAUTION :
When adding coolant or anti-freeze to the
radiator, DO NOT remove the radiator cap
until the unit has completely cooled.

Day-to-day addition of coolant or anti-freeze is done via the

compressed air.
