Drain the sediment water from the fuel tank
NEVER perform maintenance under the machine
when the engine is running. Always park the
machine on a leveled ground and shim the cylinders.
1. Place a proper container under the drainage plug of the fuel
tank (1).
2. Release the plug (1) and allow the sediment water to drain
until the clean fuel starts to drain.
3. Reinstall the drain plug and tighten it.
4. Repeat the operations above on the opposite side plug.
NOTE: The sediment water draining process on the fuel tank
should also be made when the equipment is not being
used for a long period of time.
Check the alternator belt tensions (Tier IV Engine)
Checking the belt tension should be done with a belt tension
meter of tension type or Burroughs type.
 A new belt should have a tension of 200 lb (890 N).
 A used belt should have a tension of 80-160 lb (360-710
N).
NOTE: The belt is considered used after ten minutes of usage
or more.
OBSERVATION: This procedure is not applied on automatic
belt tensioners.
If the tension of a used belt is under the
minimum value, adjust it again to the maximum
value for used belts..
