Lubrication Oil
Fill the engine crankcase with lubricating oil through the filler
hole, but do not overfill. Make sure the welder/AC generator
is level. With the dipstick inserted all the way, but without
being screw into the filler hole, verify that the oil level is
maintained between the two notches (Figure 12) on the
dipstick. See Table 8 for proper selection of engine oil.
Fuel
Fill the fuel tank with clean diesel fuel. Do not fill the tank
beyond capacity.
Pay attention to the fuel tank capacity when replenishing
fuel. Refer to the fuel tank capacity listed on page 10
Specification Table 1.
The fuel tank cap must be closed tightly after filling. Handle
fuel in a safety container. If the container does not have a
spout, use a funnel.
CAUTION :
Never fill the fuel tank while the engine is
running or in the dark. Fuel spillage on a
hot engine can cause a fire or explosion.
If fuel spillage occurs, wipe up the spilled
gasoline completely to prevent fire
hazards.
Coolant
Use only drinkable tap water. If hard water or water with
many impurities is used, the inside of the engine and radiator
may become coated with deposits and cooling efficiency
will be reduced.
An anticorrosion additive added to the water will help prevent
deposits and corrosion in the cooling system. See the
Kobota Engine Operator's Manual
for further details.
