Service Daily Before Start-Up

1. Check the engine oil level. Wipe dipstick 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 (A). (See Fuel, Lubricants, and Coolant section for oil specifications.)

2. Drain water and sediment from fuel filter drain (C). (See Drain Water and Sediment from Fuel Filter in Service—10 Hours.

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

   Check coolant level in recovery tank (D). 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 “FULL” mark.

4. 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.
