5. When the oil level is below the dipstick “L” mark, add oil through the oil filler to the bring the levelup to the dipstick “H” mark.
3.2.3.1EngineOilCondition
When moisture is found on the oil fill cap and/or the engine oil has a milky appearance an engine oil andfilter service is required.
1. Per form an engine oil and filter service.
2. After the engine oil and filter service, drive the unit at operating temperature 215ºF (101.6ºC)under load for at least 30 minutes.
3. Ensure the unit is driven at operating temperature for a minimum of 30 minutes every 50 hoursthereafter.
3.2.4EngineCoolantLevel
1. When the engine is warm, turn off the unit and wait until the coolant temperature is below120°F(50°C) before checking the coolant level.
2. With the engine stopped and cooled, locate the coolant reservoir/expansion tank.
3. Ensure coolant level is between the “COLD” and “HOT” markings on the radiator or reservoir/expansion tank.
CAUTION:
Never operate the engine when the oil level is below the “L” (low) mark or above the“H” (high) mark. Damage to the engine or poor engine performance may occur.
Over-filling the engine crankcase can result in oil leaks or bearing damage. Check theoil level frequently while adding oil to avoid over-filling the crankcase.
NOTE:
Due to natural environmental conditions, condensation will deposit moisture inside theengine crankcase. This moisture will be vaporized when the motor oil reaches an operatingtemperature above 215ºF (101.6ºC). Operations with short driving distances may not providethe engine with enough time for the engine oil to exceed 215ºF (101.6ºC), resulting in anaccumulation of moisture in the engine oil, causing the engine oil to have a milky appear-ance. To prevent this, all engines should be brought to operating temperature, and drivenunder load, for a minimum of 30 minutes every 50 hours.
WARNING:
THE COOLING SYSTEM IS PRESSURIZED. ESCAPING STEAM ANDHOT COOLANT CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. NEVER OPEN A RADIATORCAP WHEN COOLANT TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS 120°F (50°C).
USE A CLOTH OR WEAR SUITABLE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING A HOTRADIATOR PRESSURE CAP. ETHYLENE GLYCOL ANTIFREEZE IS TOXICAND WILL IRRITATE THE SKIN. WASH ANY PART OF THE BODY THATCOMES IN CONTACT WITH ANTIFREEZE SOLUTION AS SOON AS POSSI-BLE.
NOTE:Some minor coolant loss is normal due to thermal expansion. A very low coolant level indi-cates serious leakage in the system that must be located and corrected immediately.
