Checking Transmission Fluid Level
1. Park the machine on a flat surface, lower the
implement to the ground and shut off the engine and
remove the key.
Allow the machine to idle for 1-3 minutes, and then
check fluid.
2. Raise and lock the operator's seat.
3. To check the oil level, draw out the dipstick, wipe it
clean, replace it, and draw it out again. Check to see
that the oil level lies between the two notches.
If the level is too low, add the new oil to the prescribed
level at the oil inlet.
(See "LUBRICANTS" in "MAINTENANCE" section.)
A
If oil level is low, do not run engine.

Checking Coolant Level
To avoid personal injury:
A
Do not remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. Then loosen cap slightly to the
stop to relieve any excess pressure before
removing cap completely.
Check the coolant level daily both the radiator and the
recovery tank before starting engine.
1. Remove the radiator cap and check to see that the
coolant level is just below the fill port.
2. Check to see that the coolant level is between the
"FULL" and "LOW" marks of recovery tank.
3. When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add
water only up to just below the fill port of the radiator
and the full level of the recovery tank.
In case of leakage, add anti-freeze and water in the
specified mixing ratio up to the full level.
(See "Flush Cooling System and Changing Coolant" in
"EVERY 1 YEAR" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" section.)
A
If the radiator cap has to be removed, follow the
caution above and securely retighten the cap.
A
Use clean, distilled water and anti-freeze to fill the
radiator and the recovery tank.
A
If water should leak, consult your local KUBOTA
Dealer.
