Keep the oil level between the marks on the
engine oil dipstick.
The distance between the top and bottom
dipstick marks corresponds to about 1 qt USA
(one liter). Add oil, if needed, at the top of the
engine.
See the “Specifications” chapter 3, for the correct
engine oil grade and weight.

from the engine to the fuel tank, for leaks.

Engine Coolant Level
At operating temperature the coolant should be at
the HOT level. When cold, there should be about
1 inch (2.5 cm) of coolant in the bottom of the
reservoir.
The coolant is half water and half antifreeze,
(Kubota recommends ethylene glycol antifreeze).
To add coolant:
1. Turn the engine OFF at the ground control
box Master Key Switch.
2. Remove the cap from the coolant reservoir.
3. Add coolant, then replace the cap.
