Lubricants and Capacities
Note: New engines DO NOT require a running-in period.
The engine/machine should be used in a normal work
cycle immediately; glazing of the piston cylinder bores,
resulting in excessive oil consumption, could occur if the
engine is gently run-in. Under no circumstances should the
engine be allowed to idle for extended periods; (e.g. warming
up without load).
Coolant Mixtures
T3-009_3
Check the strength of the coolant mixture at least once a
year, preferably at the start of the cold period.
Replace the coolant mixture according to the intervals
shown in the machine's Service Schedule.
!MWARNING
Antifreeze can be harmful. Obey the manufacturer's
instructions when handling full strength or diluted
antifreeze.
7-3-4-4_1
You must dilute full strength antifreeze with clean water
before use. Use clean water of no more than a moderate
hardness (pH value 8.5). If this cannot be obtained, use
de-ionized water. For further information advice on water
hardness, contact your local water authority.
The correct concentration of antifreeze protects the engine
against frost damage in winter and provides year round
protection against corrosion.
The protection provided by JCB High Performance
Antifreeze and Inhibitor is shown below.
