OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL STE35SR
After Starting Engine
Emergency stop
If any trouble occurs, turn the starting switch to the OFF position.
If the work equipment is operated without carrying out the warming-up operation properly, the
reaction of the work equipment to the operation of the control lever will be slow and the work
equipment may not move as the operator intends. To prevent such problems, always be sure
to carry out the warming-up operation fully. In cold weather particularly, be extremely careful
to carry out the warming-up operation fully.
Breaking in the New Machine
The machine has been thoroughly adjusted and tested before shipment from the factory. However,
operating the machine under full load before breaking the machine in can adversely affect the
performance and shorten the machine life.
Be sure to break in the machine for the initial 100 hours (as indicated on the service meter).
During the running-in operation, observe the precautions required in this manual.
Run the engine at idle for 5 minutes after starting it.
Avoid operation with heavy loads or at high speeds.
Avoid sudden starts, sudden acceleration, unnecessary sudden stops, and sudden changes in
direction.
Warming up operation
IMPORTANCE
No operation or sudden operation of the joystick is allowed under the condition of low
temperature of hydraulic oil. Warm-up operation must be carried out first to prolong the
service life of the machine.
After starting the engine, don't make the engine accelerate suddenly until the warm-up
operation is completed. Especially in cold weather, if the engine accelerates suddenly, it will
emit white smoke, but this does not mean abnormal.
Do not run the engine continuously at low or high idle speeds for more than 20 minutes.
If it is necessary to run the engine continuously at idle speed, the engine should be loaded from
time to time or run at medium speed.
Do not start operation immediately after starting the engine. First, perform the following operations
and checks.
1. Turn fuel control dial to center position between the low idle and high idle positions and run
the engine at a mid-range speed about 5 minutes.
REMARK
When the temperature is lower than 0°C, turn the
throttle knob to the middle and low speed position
for warm-up operation。
Set lock lever slowly and securely to FREE position
(F), then raise the bucket from the ground.
2. Place the safety lock lever in the unlock
position and raise the bucket from the ground.
3. Slowly operate the left and right joysticks to
move the bucket cylinder and stick cylinder to
the end of the stroke
