A1 - I.C. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
CHECK
Place the lift truck on level ground with the I.C. engine stopped, and let the oil drain into
the sump.
- Lift up the overhead guard or the cab (see : 2 - DESCRIPTION :
INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).
- Remove the dipstick 1 (fig. A1/1).
- Clean the dipstick and check the level between the two MAXI and MINI notches.
- If necessar y, add oil (see : 3 - MAINTENANCE : LUBRICANTS AND FUEL) by the filler por t
2 (fig. A1/2).
- Check visually that there is no leakage or seepage of oil in the I.C. engine.
A2 - COOLING LIQUID LEVEL
CHECK
Place the lift truck on level ground with the I.C. engine stopped, and allow the I.C. engine
to cool.
- Lift up the overhead guard or the cab (see : 2 - DESCRIPTION :
INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).
- The liquid must be at the MAXIMUM level on the expansion pan 1 (fig. A2/1).
- If necessary, add cooling liquid (see : 3 - MAINTENANCE : LUBRICANTS AND FUEL) through
the filler port 2 (fig. A2/1).
- Check visually that there is no leakage in the radiator and pipes.
When the expansion pan is empty, check the level in the radiator before filling the expansion
pan.
- Disassemble the cover plate 3 and the pre-filter 4 (fig. A2/2).
- Slowly bring the radiator cap 5 (fig. A2/3) up to the safety stop.
- Allow the pressure and the steam to escape.
- Press down and turn the cap so as to release it.
- Add cooling liquid through the filler port 6 (fig. A2/3) (see : 3 - MAINTENANCE : LUBRICANTS
AND FUEL).
- Lubricate slightly the filler neck in order to facilitate the setting and the removal of the
radiator cap.
To avoid any risk of spraying or burning, wait until
the I.C. engine has cooled down before removing the
cooling circuit filler plug. If the cooling liquid is very
hot, add only hot cooling liquid (80°C). In an emergency,
you can use water as a cooling liquid, then change
the cooling circuit liquid as soon as possible (see : 3
- MAINTENANCE : F1 - COOLING LIQUID).
