PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
3. The coolant level should be at the filling port of the
coolant box.
4. Add coolant as needed. Do not overfill. It is
recommended to choose the -18℃ ready-mix
coolant or coolant prepared by mixing ethylene
glycol (ethylene and propene) with water in
proportion. The water quality must meet the
requirements as listed in the table below.
Table 5-4
COOLANT TYPE
RECOMMENDED
AMBIENT TEMP
-18℃ ready-mix coolant -18℃ or higher
-37℃ ready-mix coolant -37℃ or higher
50% ethylene glycol and
50% water-mixed coolant
-32℃～0℃
650% ethylene glycol and
40% water-mixed coolant
-54℃～-32℃
NOTICE
• Do not apply sealing additive to the cooling
system, otherwise it will cause blockage to the
low-fluidity area, radiator and engine oil cooler, or
damage the water pump sealing.
• Do not apply soluble engine oil to the cooling
system, otherwise it will corrode the brass and
copper, damage the surface of heat exchanger,
sealing and hose.
• The water added into the coolant must meet the
requirements of calcium and magnesium less
than 170ppm, chloride less than 40ppm and
sulphur less than 100ppm. Excessive calcium and
magnesium can lead to scale formation, and
excessive chloride and sulfate can corrode the
cooling system.
INSPECTING THE BATTERY
The condition of the battery affects the performance of
the machine. Improper levels of battery electrolyte or
damaged cable and wiring may harm battery parts and
may pose dangerous conditions.
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
• Contact with live circuits may
cause death or serious injury.
Always wear goggles, protective
gloves and protective clothing.
• Remove all rings, watches or
other jewelry
CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD
• Avoid battery acid spillage or
contact with unprotected skin. If
the battery acid comes into
contact with the skin, wash it
immediately with plenty of water
and seek medical attention
immediately.
• In case of battery acid spillage,
use water mixed with baking soda
to neutralize the acid.
• Check the battery level. The discharged capacity
shall not exceed 80% of the total capacity of the
battery. Charge the battery immediately after each
discharging.
• Ensure the battery cells are wired reliably with the
locking nuts torqued to the specifications as below:
Nut type Torque
M8 9～11Nm (6.6～8.1ft-lb)
M10 18～23Nm (13.2～17ft-lb)
NOTICE
Improper connection may cause reduced
performance, damaged terminals, fusions and
even fires.
• Ensure the battery negative and positive poles are
correctly connected.
• Ensure the battery connections are not corroded.
• Check the battery electrolyte level is proper (for
lead-acid battery requiring maintenance).
• Check the battery box for accumulated water, if any,
clear the water.
