Kubota KX080-4 - Checking Fuel Level; Checking Engine Oil Level

67MAINTENANCE
A Do not fill the recovery tank over the "FULL" marking.
A Do not fill with dirty or salty water.
BChecking Fuel Level
To avoid personal injury:
A Stop the engine and remove the key before fuelling.
A Do not smoke while fuelling.
A By temperatures over -5 , use No.2-D diesel fuel,
when temperatures are under -5 , use No.1-D diesel
fuel.
A Make sure that the fuel tank is not run empty. Air will
enter the fuel system, and must be purged before
restarting.
A See "PURGING OF THE FUEL SYSTEM" in "OTHER
ADJUSTMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS"
A To prevent condensation (water) accumulations in the
fuel tank, fill the fuel into the tank before parking
overnight.
A Be very attentive to the remaining fuel for the engine
not to stall. If the engine stalls, it may fail to get
restarted for a while to protect the emission purifying
device.
1. Turn the starter key to the position "RUN".
A Even with the starter key not yet inserted, press the
electronic meter's user setting switch or the display
selector switch, and the LCD display shows the hour
meter, fuel gauge, water temperature gauge and clock
for 10 seconds.
2. Check the fuel level by the fuel level indicator.
3. If necessary, open the cap and fill in fuel. (See "LCD
Display for Normal Operation" in "CHECK BEFORE
START" section.)
BChecking Engine Oil Level
To avoid personal injury:
A Stop the engine and remove the key before
checking the oil level.
A Use engine oil with the correct viscosity. (according to
the outside temperature)
A After stopping the engine and remove the key, wait five
minutes, then check oil level. (Excavator must be on
level ground.)
A Part of a small amount of fuel used for DPF
regeneration may get mixed with the engine oil, which
will be more in volume than when initially poured. This
is not a trouble.
A Do not attempt to repeat and interrupt the regeneration
unnecessarily. By doing this, a small account of fuel
comes into the engine oil, which will be degraded.
Insert the engine oil dipstick fully into the prepared
opening, remove again and check the oil level; if
necessary fill with oil. The machine must be on level
ground when checking the oil level.
