4. Fill the tank with approved DEF. For specifications, refer to the inside back cover.
IMPORTANT:
DEF is corrosive. Spilled DEF must be contained and absorbed by non-combustible absorbent material like sand, and
then shovelled into a suitable container for disposal. If spilled on the tank or any surface of the vehicle, rinse
thoroughly with water.
IMPORTANT:
If the windrower temperature is going to be below 0°C (32°F), do NOT fill the DEF tank more than 75% full. When
freezing, the DEF fluid will expand by approximately 7%. For storage information, refer to 5.1.1 Storing Lubricants and
Fluids, page 327.
