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 or death:
A Stop the engine and remove the key before fuelling.
A Do not smoke while fuelling.
A By temperatures over -5 (23 ), use No.2-D diesel
fuel, when temperatures are under -5 (23 ), 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 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
for Normal Operation" in "CHECK BEFORE START"
section.)
BChecking Engine Oil Level
To avoid personal injury or death:
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 5
minutes, then check oil level. (Excavator must be on
level ground.)
A On DPF-equipped engines, part of the fuel may get
mixed with engine oil during the regenerating process.
This may dilute the oil and increase its quantity. If the
oil rises above the oil level gauge upper limit, it means
the oil has been diluted too much, resulting in a
trouble. In such case, immediately change the oil.
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.

(B) "FULL"
Fuel tank capacity 115 L (30.4 US gal.)

(2) Engine oil dipstick
(A) Oil level is acceptable
within this range.
