4.4 Preventative Maintenance
Remove the negative battery terminal before attempting any mainte-
nance procedures.
Thoroughly read and understand the safety and pre-operating sec-
tions of this manual before performing any maintenance procedures.
NEVER check the engine coolant when the engine is hot. Allow the
engine to cool at least one hour before checking the coolant. Check
the engine owner's manual for instructions. ALWAYS wear eye and
hand protection when working with the radiator.
The following are general preventative maintenance procedures for our stan
-
dard units. Any special or custom built units may have other preventative
maintenance procedures not directly mentioned in this manual. Please consult
the manufacturer before doing any preventative maintenance procedures not
specifically mentioned in this manual.
Proper preventative maintenance of your unit, just like lubrication, correlates
directly to how long your unit will last. A properly maintained unit will last much
longer than a unit that is not maintained properly.
Preventative Maintenance:
1. Engine Oil:
Change the oil and oil filter according to schedules provided
in your engine's owner's manual (EOM). The engine oil level should be
checked every day. The level should be checked after the engine has been
stopped for a period of time. This will allow the oil to drain back into the oil
pan, allowing a better indication of the true oil level. If the level is low, see
the engines owner's manual for the correct type of oil.
2. Engine Coolant:
Check the coolant level before starting the unit each
day. The coolant level should not be less than one inch below the top of the
radiator.
