After stopping engine
WARNING: Always let the engine cool before inspecting
the coolant level. Failure to do so can result in personal
injury.
NOTICE: Only use antifreeze/coolant mixtures recom-
mended in the coolant specications that are in the Opera-
tion and Maintenance Manual. Failure to do so can cause
engine damage.
• Check crankcase oil level. Maintain the oil level be-
tween the “ADD” mark and the “FULL” mark on the oil level
dipstick. In order to allow the oil to return to the oil pan, do
not operate the engine for at least 10 minutes prior to this
check.
• If necessary, perform minor adjustments. Repair any
leaks and tighten any loose bolts.
• Note the required service intervals for the machine’s
components. Perform the engine maintenance that is speci-
ed in the Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Mainte-
nance Interval Schedule”. Perform all required periodic
maintenance on all driven equipment.
• Fill the fuel tank in order to help prevent accumulation
of moisture in the fuel. The fuel tank may only be lled with
diesel class MK1. Do not overll the fuel tank.
• Allow the engine to cool. Check the coolant level.
• If freezing temperatures are expected, check the cool-
ant for the correct antifreeze protection. The cooling system
must be protected against freezing to the lowest expected
outside temperature. If necessary, add the correct coolant/
water mixture.
