3.Service Interval Presets
Hour meter is preset for recommended
service intervals.
Hydraulic oil and filter:
• First 75 hours, every 400 hours
thereafter.
Engine oil and filter:
• First 25 hours, every 100 hours
thereafter
NOTICE: The preset engine oil service
intervals in the hour meter are normal
recommended intervals. Specific engine
manufacturer’s recommendations may vary.
FILLING FUEL TANK
To add fuel to the fuel tank:
1. Clean fuel cap and surrounding area to
prevent dust, dirt, and debris from
entering fuel tanks.
2. Remove fuel caps.
IMPORTANT: Refer to engine manual for
correct type and grade of fuel.
3. Fill fuel tanks to the bottom of filler neck.
See Specifications on page 46 for fuel
tank capacity.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL! This
equipment and/or its engine may include
evaporative emissions control system
components, required to meet EPA and/or
CARB regulations, that will only function
properly when the fuel tank has been filled to
the recommended level. Overfilling may
cause permanent damage to evaporative
emissions control system components. Filling
to the recommended level ensures a vapor
gap required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay
close attention while filling the fuel tank to
ensure that the recommended fuel level
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a
portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout when
filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other
device that obstructs the view of the tank
filling process.
4. Replace fuel caps and tighten.
5. ALWAYS clean up spilled fuel.
GASOLINE
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use gasoline that
meets the following guidelines:
• Clean, fresh gasoline.
• A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI
(91 RON). High altitude use may
require a different octane. Consult
your engine manual.
• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol
(gasohol) or up to 10% MTBE (methyl
tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.
• Use of any gasoline other than those
approved above may void the engine
warranty. If the pumps are not marked
for the content of alcohol or ethers,
check ethanol and MTBE levels with
the fuel supplier.
• Do not modify the fuel system to use
different fuels.
• Never mix oil and gasoline.
NOTICE: All gasoline is not the same. If the
engine experiences starting or performance
problems after using a new gasoline, switch
to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.
IMPORTANT: Excessively oxygenated or
reformulated fuels (fuels blended with
alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel
system or cause performance problems. If
any undesirable operating problems occur,
use a gasoline with a lower percentage of
alcohol or ether.
PRE-START
1. Check Safety Interlock System
If this system does not function as described
do not operate until repairs are made.
2. Check Air Cleaner
Check air filter for dirt and overall condition.
Clean as required. Follow engine manual
maintenance schedule.
3. Check Engine Fuel and Crankcase
Oil
Check and add fuel if required. Check that
engine crankcase oil is full. Follow engine
manual maintenance schedule.
4. Check Tire Pressure
Specifications on page 46 for correct tire
pressure.
WARNING: AVOID INJURY. Read
and understand entire Safety
section before proceeding.
CAUTION: Make sure all
hardware is tight, all safety
devices are in place and all
adjustments are made correctly.
