Checking Radiator Hoses And Clamp Bands; Precaution At Overheating - Kubota Z482-E3 Bedienungsanleitung

18 PERIODIC SERVICE
BChecking radiator hoses and clamp
bands
To avoid personal injury:
A Be sure to check radiator hoses and
clamp bands periodically. If radiator
hose is damaged or coolant leaks,
overheats or severe burns could
occur.
Check to see if radiator hoses are properly fixed every
200 hours of operation or 6 months, whichever comes
first.
1. If hose clamps are loose or water leaks, tighten hose
clamp securely.
2. Replace hoses and tighten hose clamps securely, if
radiator hoses are swollen, hardened or cracked.
Replace hoses and hose clamps every 2 years or earlier,
if checked and found that hoses are swollen, hardened or
cracked.
BPrecaution at overheating
Take the following actions in the event the coolant
temperature is nearly or more than the boiling point, what
is called "Overheating". Take these actions if the engine's
alarm buzzer sounds or the alarm lamp lights up.
1. Stop the engine operation in a safe place and keep
the engine unloaded idling.
2. Do not stop the engine suddenly. Stop it after about 5
minutes of unloaded idling.
3. If the engine stalls within about 5 minutes of running
under no load, immediately leave and keep yourself
away from the machine. Do not open the hood and
any other part.
4. Keep yourself and others well away from the engine
for further 10 minutes or while the steam blown out.
5. Checking that there gets no danger such as burn, get
rid of the causes of overheating according to the
manual, see "TROUBLESHOOTING" section. And
then, start the engine again.
BAnti-freeze
To avoid personal injury:
A When using anti-freeze, put on some
protection such as rubber gloves
(Anti-freeze contains poison.).
A If should drink anti-freeze, throw up
at once and take medical attention.
A When anti-freeze comes in contact
with the skin or clothing, wash it off
immediately.
A Do not mix different types of anti-
freeze. The mixture can produce
chemical reaction causing harmful
substances.
A Anti-freeze is extremely flammable
and explosive
conditions. Keep fire and children
away from anti-freeze.
A When draining
engine, place
underneath the engine body.
A Do not pour waste onto the grounds,
down a drain, or into any water
source.
A Also, observe
environmental
regulations when disposing of anti-
freeze.
Always use a 50/50 mix of long-life coolant and clean soft
water in KUBOTA engines.
Contact KUBOTA concerning coolant for extreme
conditions.
1. Long-life coolant (hereafter LLC) comes in several
types. Use ethylene glycol (EG) type for this engine.
2. Before employing LLC-mixed cooling water, flush the
radiator with fresh water. Repeat this procedure 2 or 3
times to clean up the radiator and engine block from
inside.
3. Mixing the LLC
Premix 50% LLC with 50% clean soft water. When
mixing, stir it up well, and then fill into the radiator.
4. The procedure for the mixing of water and anti-freeze
differs according to the make of the anti-freeze. Refer
to SAE J1034 standard, more specifically also to SAE
J814c.
