1. Check the engine oil level. Wipe dipstick (A) off and reinsert it fully. Remove and locate oil level.

Safe operating range is between two marks on dipstick. Do not operate engine when oil level is

below lower mark on dipstick. Add seasonal viscosity grade oil through filler hole (B). (See Fuel, Lubricants, and Coolant section for oil specifications.)

causym CAUTION: DO NOT remove radiator cap or drain coolant until coolant is cold. Always loosen radiator cap slowly to relieve any excess pressure.

2. Check coolant level in recovery tank (A). If engine is COOL and level is below "LOW" mark, add coolant to recovery tank to bring level to "LOW" mark.

NOTE: Coolant level with a cold engine should be at the "LOW" mark. A tractor at operating temperature should have a coolant level at the "HOT FULL" mark.

3. Lubricate the following items at 10 hour intervals if operating in extremely wet or muddy conditions.

  • Front axle pivot pin(s)
  • Steering spindles
  • Tie rod ends

Use multipurpose grease. For detailed information see Lubrication and Maintenance section.
