JOB SITE OPERATIONS
To prevent damage to the machine do the following:
4. Check the condition of the drive belts. 5. Use lubricants of the correct viscosity.
1. Keep the coolant at the correct level in the coolant reservoir and in the radiator.
6. Use the correct solution of ethylene glycol and water in the cooling system.
2. Test the radiator cap before hot weather starts. Replace the cap as required.
7. Check the dust valve of the air cleaner more frequently during extreme dust conditions.
3. Clean all dirt and debris from the radiator and engine area.
If your machine is disabled, you must make a judgment if the machine can be moved without further damage. If possible, repair the machine at the job location. If you cannot repair the machine at the job location and if you have a transport trailer, park the trailer as close as possible to the machine (see Transporting the Machine in this manual). If you must tow the machine, read the following recommendations and use caution.
