Lock brake pedals together (if equipped) and engage the parking brake.

Place all controls in neutral.

Stop engine, unfasten seat belt and remove the key.

•

Never allow riders on the compact tractor or implement. Falling off can result in serious injury or death.

•

Start the compact tractor only when properly seated in the operator’s seat. Starting a compact tractor in gear can result in serious injury or death.

•

Operate the compact tractor and attachments / implements from the operator's position only.

•

Add the correct front ballast for rear three-point hitch implements and pull type implements. Add the correct rear ballast when using the loader and attachments.

Front and rear ballast can be purchased from your compact tractor dealer.

•

Do not handle large objects (such as round bales or posts) unless the loader is equipped with the proper attachment and the load is secured.

•

The parking brake must be engaged before leaving the compact tractor operator’s seat. Rollaway can occur because the transmission may not prevent machine movement. Lock the brake pedals together (if equipped) before activating the parking brake.

FIRE PREVENTION

Hydraulic System Check hydraulic tubes, hoses and fittings for damage and leakage. Never use open flame or bare skin to check for leaks. Hydraulic tubes and hoses must be properly routed and have adequate support and secure clamps.

Tighten or replace any parts that show leakage.

Always clean fluid spills. Do not use gasoline or diesel fuel for cleaning parts. Use commercial nonflammable solvents.

Maintenance The machine and some attachments / implements have components that are at high temperatures under normal operating conditions. The primary source of high temperatures is the engine and exhaust system. The electrical system, if damaged or incorrectly maintained, can be a source of arcs or sparks.

Fueling

Flammable debris (leaves, straw, etc.) must be removed regularly. If flammable debris is allowed to accumulate, it can cause a fire hazard. Clean often to avoid this accumulation. Flammable debris in the engine compartment is a potential fire hazard.

Stop the engine and let it cool before adding fuel. No smoking! Do not refuel a machine near open flames or sparks. Fill the fuel tank outdoors.

The operator’s area, engine compartment and engine cooling system must be inspected every day and cleaned if necessary to prevent fire hazards and overheating.

All fuels, most lubricants and some coolant mixtures are flammable. Flammable fluids that are leaking or spilled onto hot surfaces or onto electrical components can cause a fire.

Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) poses a greater static ignition hazard than earlier diesel formulations with higher Sulfur content. Avoid death or serious injury from fire or explosion. Consult with your fuel or fuel system supplier to ensure the delivery system is in compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding and bonding practices.

Operation

Starting

Do not use the machine where exhaust, arcs, sparks or hot components can contact flammable material, explosive dust or gases.

Do not use ether or starting fluids on any engine that has glow plugs. These starting aids can cause explosion and injure you or bystanders.

Electrical

Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery and for jump starting.

Spark Arrester Exhaust System The spark arrester exhaust system is designed to control the emission of hot particles from the engine and exhaust system, but the exhaust components and the exhaust gases are still hot.

Check all electrical wiring and connections for damage.

Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Repair or replace any damaged part or wires that are loose or frayed.

Check the spark arrester exhaust system regularly to make sure it is maintained and working properly. Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for cleaning the spark arrester (if equipped).

Battery gas can explode and cause serious injury. Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery and for jump starting. Do not jump start or charge a frozen or damaged battery. Keep any open flames or sparks away from batteries. Do not smoke in battery charging area.

FIRE PREVENTION (CONT’D) Welding And Grinding Always clean the machine and attachment / implement, disconnect the battery, and disconnect the wiring from the Bobcat controllers before welding. Cover rubber hoses, battery and all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near the machine when welding.

Have good ventilation when grinding or welding painted parts. Wear dust mask when grinding painted parts.

Toxic dust or gas can be produced.

Dust generated from repairing nonmetallic parts such as hoods, fenders or covers can be flammable or explosive.

Repair such components in a well ventilated area away from open flames or sparks.

Fire Extinguishers

Know where fire extinguishers and first aid kits are located and how to use them. Inspect the fire extinguisher and service the fire extinguisher regularly.

Obey the recommendations on the instructions plate.

TOWING THE COMPACT TRACTOR Procedure Towing Compact Tractor With Loader Installed If possible, slightly raise the attachment off of the ground.

The compact tractor will need to be towed backwards (if possible) to avoid the bucket (or attachment) from digging into the ground while towing.

IMPORTANT Never tow the compact tractor faster than 16 km/h (10 mph). Always have someone seated to steer and brake the towed compact tractor.

Use the towing procedure described but install the tow chain to the rear of the compact tractor and tow backwards.

Tow the compact tractor for short distances only.

I-2263-0910

Towing Compact Tractor With Implement Installed

NOTE: When the engine is not running, turning the steering wheel will require more effort. Power steering assist is not available when the engine is OFF.

If the engine can be started, slightly raise the implement off of the ground. The type of implement will determine which direction to tow the compact tractor.

Implements that dig into the ground will be difficult to tow and may require the implement to be disconnected from the compact tractor before towing. (Example: plow or cultivator.) If the implement must be removed before towing, use the procedure described previously and tow forward to get the compact tractor away from the implement.

Install a tow chain (or cable) to the front (for towing in the forward direction) or to the drawbar (for towing in the rearward direction).

The tow chain (or cable) must be rated at 1.5 times the weight of the compact tractor and implement / attachment. (See Performance on Page 153.)

NOTE: Do not connect the tow chain (or cable) to the loader, attachment or the implement, connect to the compact tractor only. The rated strength of the tow chain or cable must be rated at 1.5 times the weight of the entire towed load (compact tractor plus the attachment or implement installed). Add the weight of the compact tractor, the loader, the attachment and / or the implement together for the total machine weight to calculate the strength of the tow chain or cable needed.

Enter the compact tractor and fasten the seat belt. Move the PTO switch (if equipped), mid-PTO lever (if equipped) to the disengaged (OFF) position.

Disengage the front wheel assist.

Move the speed range lever to neutral (N).

Place all controls in neutral.

Disengage the parking brake, but leave the brake pedals locked together (if equipped) for slowing or stopping the compact tractor.

Always have an operator seated in the operator's seat to operate the steering and brakes while towing the compact tractor. Use ROPS and fasten seat belt. Engage the parking brake and stop the engine before leaving the machine.

If the compact tractor is equipped with a loader or has an implement attached and the engine cannot be started, tow the compact tractor using one of the following procedures:

SEAT BELT Inspection And Maintenance Figure 148

WARNING

1

Failure to properly inspect and maintain the seat belt can cause lack of operator restraint resulting in serious injury or death.

3

W-2466-0703

Check the seat belt daily for correct function.

Inspect the seat belt system thoroughly at least once each year or more often if the machine is exposed to severe environmental conditions or applications.

2

4

Any seat belt system that shows cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear, significant discolorations due to ultraviolet UV exposure, dusty / dirty conditions, abrasion to the seat belt webbing, or damage to the buckle, latch plate, retractor (if equipped), hardware or any other obvious problem should be replaced immediately.

The items below are referenced in [Figure 148].

1. Check the webbing. If the system is equipped with a retractor, pull the webbing completely out and inspect the full length of the webbing. Look for cuts, wear, fraying, dirt and stiffness.

B-22283

2. Check the buckle and latch for correct operation.

Make sure latch plate is not excessively worn, deformed or buckle is not damaged or casing broken.

3. Check the retractor web storage device (if equipped) by extending webbing to determine if it looks correct and that it spools out and retracts webbing correctly.

4. Check webbing in areas exposed to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun or extreme dust or dirt. If the original color of the webbing in these areas is extremely faded and / or the webbing is packed with dirt, the webbing strength may have deteriorated.

See your Bobcat dealer for seat belt system replacement parts for your machine.

KIOTI Tractor Division (KIOTI) is pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your 2019 model year engine designed & manufactured to meet the stringent requirements of Tier IV.  In North America, new engines must be designed; built and equipped to meet the EPA’s reduced emission standards & California’s stringent anti-smog standards. KIOTI must warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.  Additional conditions and responsibilities are further outlined below. Where a warrantable condition exists, KIOTI will repair your engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.  The warranty period shall begin on the date the engine is first placed in service (Date of sale). This emissions warranty is applicable in all provinces, states and territories of the United States of America and complies with the policies of Federal Warranty Provisions. This warranty is also applicable in all provinces & territories of Canada.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE: KIOTI warrants to the original owner, and to each subsequent owner, of a new, diesel engine that the emission control system of your engine: 1. Was designed, built and equipped so as to conform at the time of sale with all applicable regulations of the EPA and CARB. 2. Is free from defects in material and workmanship which will cause such engine to fail to conform with applicable regulations for the following warranty period: • For variable speed engines rated less than 19 kW (25 HP), excluding UTV’s: - Commercial application: Three (3) years or 2,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.  - Non-Commercial application: Four (4) years • For all other variable speed engines rated at or above 19 kW (25 HP): - Commercial application: Five (5) years or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. - Non-Commercial application: Five (5) years  The emission control systems of your new Daedong engine were designed, built and tested using genuine Daedong parts, and the engine is certified as being in conformity with EPA and CARB emission control regulations.  Accordingly, it is recommended that any replacement parts used for maintenance, repair or replacement of emission control systems be genuine Daedong parts.  Owners may choose to use any replacement part in the performance of any maintenance or non-warranty repairs although KIOTI recommends that the owner obtain assurance that such parts are warranted by their specific part manufacturer to be equivalent to genuine Daedong parts.  Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance shall be warranted for the warranty period defined above.  If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it will be repaired or replaced under warranty. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty shall be warranted for the remaining warranty period. Any warranted part which is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions shall be warranted for the warranty period defined above. A statement in the written instructions to the effect of "repair or replace as necessary” shall not reduce the period of warranty coverage.  Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty shall be warranted for the remaining warranty period. Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.  If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by the engine manufacturer under warranty.  Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part. Repair or replacement of any warranted part under warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at an authorized KIOTI warranty station. KIOTI provides warranty services or repairs at all manufacturer distribution centers (warranty stations) that are franchised to service the subject engines. Please see the Customer Assistance section of this statement for help in locating such service centers.  The owner will not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at an authorized KIOTI warranty station.  KIOTI is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part remaining under warranty.  KIOTI is required by EPA and CARB regulations to maintain a supply of parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts during the warranty period for the engines covered by this warranty.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES: This engine is designed to operate on ultra low sulfur fuel only. Use of any other fuel may result in this engine no longer operating in compliance with applicable emissions requirements. The purchaser is responsible for initiating the warranty process by presenting the engine to an authorized KIOTI Warranty Station, as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed by the dealer as expeditiously as possible. Use of any add-on, modified or non-KIOTI approved or equivalent replacement parts may reduce or eliminate your warranty coverage. The use of any non-approved, add-on or modified parts shall be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. KIOTI is not liable for warranty failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a nonapproved, add-on or modified part.  The emissions control parts covered by this Emission Control System Warranty are listed under “What is covered by the Emission Warranty.” You are responsible for the performance of all scheduled maintenance or repairs on your new Daedong engine.  KIOTI may deny a warranty claim if your failure to perform maintenance results in the failure of a warranted part. Receipts covering the performance of regular maintenance should be retained in the event questions arise concerning maintenance. The receipts should be transferred to each subsequent owner of the equipment with the emission warranted engines.   CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE In the event that you do not receive the warranty service to which you believe you are entitled under the Emission Control System’s Warranty, you should contact KIOTI at the address below for assistance.
