OPERATING THE ENGINE
WARMING UP
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Be sure to set the parking brake during warm-
up.
A
Be sure to set the shuttle lever to the
"NEUTRAL" position and to place PTO switch
in "OFF" position during warm-up.
For 5 minutes after engine start-up, allow engine to warm
up without applying any load, this is to allow oil to reach
every engine part. If load should be applied to the engine
without this warm-up period, trouble such as seizure,
breakage or premature wear may develop.
B
Warm-up and Transmission Oil at Low
Temperature Range
Hydraulic oil serves as transmission fluid. In cold weather,
the oil may be cold with increased viscosity. This can
cause delayed oil circulation or abnormally low hydraulic
pressure for some time after engine start-up. This in turn
can result in trouble in the hydraulic system.
To prevent the above, observe the following instructions:
Warm up the engine at about 50 % of rated rpm according
to the table below:
A
Do not operate the tractor under full load condition until
it is sufficiently warmed up.
B
Transmission Low Temperature
Regulation
[Premium KVT model]
In order to prevent transmission damage due to poor
lubrication, etc., when the transmission fluid temperature
is approximately -7°C (19°F) or below, regulation will take
place depending on the fluid temperature as in the table
below. As well, the operator will be informed during
regulation by indicator and message.
During regulation, perform warm-up operation without
using the accelerator.
When the indicator goes off and the message disappears,
gear shifting is available.
A
When the transmission fluid temperature is below
−
30°C (
−
22°F), the regulation of warm up operation
does not function, so please wait until fluid
temperature becomes more than
−
30°C (
−
22°F) with
engine idling speed.
When the temperature rises above
−
30°C (
−
22°F), the
regulation will start automatically.
A
This indicator doubles as the engine low temperature
regulation indicator.
(For details, refer to "Engine Low Temperature
Regulation" in "COLD WEATHER STARTING" in the
"OPERATING THE ENGINE" section.)
