Service and Repairs
NOTE: For engine component repair information, see
the Kubota Workshop Manual: 05 Series Diesel Engine.
Battery Storage
If the machine will be stored for more than 30 days:
1. Remove the battery and charge it fully (see Battery
Service in this section).
2. Either store battery on a shelf or on the machine.
3. Leave cables disconnected if the battery is stored on
the machine.
4. Store battery in a cool atmosphere to avoid quick de-
terioration of the battery charge.
5. To help prevent the battery from freezing, make sure
it is fully charged (see Battery Service in this section).
Battery Care
A maintenance free battery is supplied with the product.
Use a maintenance free battery of the same size and ca-
pacity for replacement.
1. Keep terminals and entire battery case clean. Dirt
and corrosion on the battery terminals may cause the
battery to discharge.
A. Clean battery by washing entire case with a solu-
tion of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and water.
Rinse with clear water.
Connecting cables in the wrong order or to the
wrong post could result in personal injury and/or
damage to the electrical system.
WARNING
NOTE: Disconnect negative (−) cable first. Recon-
nect positive (+) cable first.
B. If corrosion exists at battery terminals, discon-
nect cables and clean clamps and terminals sepa-
rately with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and a
brush. Reconnect cables.
C. Battery cables must be tight on battery terminals
to provide good electrical contact.
D. Coat battery posts and cable connectors with bat-
tery terminal protector (see Special Tools in this
chapter) or petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
