LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
l Run the engine for 10 minutes to ensure
complete distribution of the special oil through
the injection pump and fuel injectors. There is
no need to remove the injector nozzles.
l Fill the fuel tank with No.1 diesel fuel.
IMPORTANT: Do not use No.2 diesel fuel for winter
storage because of wax separation and setting at
low temperatures.
l Drain the radiator and engine block. Flush the
system, close the drain valves, and fill with a
50/50 solution of permanent antifreeze and
clear water.
Tractors that have been placed in storage should be
completely serviced in the following manner before
using.
1. Inflate the tires to the recommended
pressures, and remove the blocking.
2. Check the oil level in the engine crankcase,
the common sump (for the hydraulic lift,
transmisson and rear axle.)
3. Install a fully charged battery.
4. Check the cooling system for proper level of
50% solution of antifreeze and clear water.
5. Start the engine and allow it to idle a few
minutes. Be sure the engine is receiving
lubrication and that each control is functioning
correctly.
6. Drive the tractor without a load and check to
be sure it is operating satisfactorily.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
l To reduce fire hazards, allow the engine and
exhaust system to cool before storing the
vehicle in an enclosed space or near
combustible materials.
l Do not operate the engine in a closed room.
The air will be polluted with exhaust gas
which is very dangerous.
l Do not clean the machine with engine
running.
l When storing, remove the key from the key
switch to avoid unauthorised persons from
operating the machine and getting injured.
