Check Engine Oil
The engine lubrication oil must be kept at a level above
the ADD mark, but not above the FULL mark, on the
engine lubrication oil dipstick.
ALWAYS stop the engine before
checking the engine lubrication oil level as hot oil
can be thrown, causing serious injury.
Wait î›™ve minutes after engine
shutdown before removing the dipstick from the
engine and checking the oil level to assure accuracy.
This also prevents î›™lling the engine with too much
lubrication oil. Engine oil should be warm when
checked.
Spreadroll Individual Gate Wear
Plates
The spread hopper wear plates are adjustable and
reversible. Check this adjustment every 50 hours of
service. The adjusters are located behind the spreading
gates. (See Page 5-26 for wear plates replacement.)
Adjuster Bolts
Figure 5-12. Gate Wear Plate Adjusters
To adjust the wear plates:
1. Extend the spreading gates completely.
2. Loosen the adjuster bolts. (Figure 5-12)
3. Slide the spreadroll seal to obtain an even 1/16-inch
(1.59 mm) gap between the seal and the spreadroll,
then retighten each bolt.
