ENGLISH
6. EXHAUST GASES & FIRE PREVENTION
AEngine exhaust fumes can be very harmful if allowed to
accumulate. Be sure to run the engine in a well
ventilated location and where there are no people or
livestock near the engine.
AThe exhaust gas from the muffler is very hot. To prevent
a fire, do not expose dry grass, mowed grass, oil or any
other combustible materials to exhaust gas. Keep the
engine and muffler clean at all times.
ATo avoid a fire, be alert for leaks of flammable
substances from hoses and lines. Be sure to check for
leaks from hoses or pipes, such as fuel and hydraulic
fluid by following the maintenance check list.
ATo avoid a fire, do not short across power cables and
wires. Check to see that all power cables and wirings
are in good condition. Keep all electrical connections
clean. Bare wire or frayed insulation can cause a
dangerous electrical shock and personal injury.
7. ESCAPING FLUID
ARelieve all pressure in the air, the oil and the cooling
systems before disconnecting any lines, fittings or
related items.
ABe cautious of possible pressure relief when
disconnecting any device from a pressurized system
that utilizes pressure. DO NOT check for pressure leaks
with your hand. High pressure oil or fuel can cause
personal injury.
AEscaping fluid under pressure has sufficient force to
penetrate skin causing serious personal injury.
AFluid escaping from pinholes may be invisible. Use a
piece of cardboard or wood to search for suspected
leaks: do not use hands and body. Use safety goggles
or other eye protection when checking for leaks.
AIf injured by escaping fluid, see a medical doctor
immediately. This fluid can produce gangrene or severe
allergic reaction.

4 SAFE OPERATION
ENGLISH
8. CAUTIONS AGAINST BURNS & BATTERY EXPLOSION
ATo avoid burns, be cautious of hot components, e.g.
muffler, muffler cover, radiator, hoses, engine body,
coolants, engine oil, etc. during operation and after the
engine has been shut off.
ADO NOT remove the radiator cap while the engine is
running or immediately after stopping. Otherwise hot
water will spout out from the radiator. Wait until the
radiator is completely cool to the touch before removing
the cap. Wear safety goggles.
ABe sure to close the coolant drain valve, secure the
pressure cap, and fasten the pipe band before
operating. If these parts are taken off, or loosened, it will
result in serious personal injury.
AThe battery presents an explosive hazard. When the
battery is being charged, hydrogen and oxygen gases
are extremely explosive.
ADO NOT use or charge the battery if its fluid level is
below the LOWER mark.
Otherwise, the component parts may deteriorate earlier
than expected, which may shorten the service life or
cause an explosion. Immediately, add distilled water
until the fluid level is between the UPPER and LOWER
marks.
AKeep sparks and open flames away from the battery,
especially during charging. DO NOT strike a match near
the battery.
ADO NOT check the battery charge by placing a metal
object across the terminals. Use a voltmeter or
hydrometer.
ADO NOT charge a frozen battery. There is a risk of
explosion. When frozen, warm the battery up to at least
16°C (61°F).
9. KEEP HANDS AND BODY AWAY FROM ROTATING PARTS
ABe sure to stop the engine before checking or adjusting
the belt tension and cooling fan.
AKeep your hands and body away from rotating parts,
such as the cooling fan, V-belt, fan drive pulley or
flywheel. Contact with rotating parts can cause severe
personal injury.
ADO NOT run the engine without safety guards. Install
safety guards securely before operation.

5SAFE OPERATION
ENGLISH
10. ANTI-FREEZE & DISPOSAL OF FLUIDS
AAnti-freeze contains poison. Wear rubber gloves to
avoid personal injury. In case of contact with skin, wash
it off immediately.
ADO NOT mix different types of Anti-freeze. The mixture
can produce a chemical reaction causing harmful
su
bstances . Use approved or genuine KUBOTA Anti-
freeze.
ABe mindful of the environment and the ecology. Before
draining any fluids, determine the correct way to dispose
of them. Observe the relevant environmental protection
regulations when disposing of oil, fuel, coolant, brake
fluid, filters and batteries.
AWhen draining fluids from the engine, place a suitable
container underneath the engine body.
ADO NOT pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or
into any water source. Dispose of waste fluids according
to environmental regulations.
11. CONDUCTING SAFETY CHECKS & MAINTENANCE
AWhen inspecting the engine or servicing, place the
engine on a large flat surface. DO NOT work on
anything that is supported ONLY by lift jacks or a hoist.
Always use blocks or the correct stands to support the
engine before servicing.
ADisconnect the battery from the engine before
conducting service. Put a "DO NOT OPERATE!" tag on
the key switch to avoid accidental starting.
ATo avoid sparks from an accidental short circuit always
disconnect the battery's ground cable (-) first and
reconnect it last.
ABe sure to stop the engine and remove the key when
conducting daily and periodic maintenance, service and
cleaning.
ACheck or conduct maintenance after the engine,
coolant, muffler, or muffler cover have cooled off
completely.
AAlways use the appropriate tools and fixtures. Verify that

BRadiator Cooling water(Coolant)
WARNING
To avoid personal injury:
ADo not remove radiator cap until
coolant temperature is well below
its boiling point. Then loosen cap
slightly to the stop position, to
relieve any pressure, before
removing cap completely.
If the coolant temperature warning lamp lights up or if
steam or coolant does not stop squirting from the
radiator overflow pipe, turn off the load and keep the
engine idling (COOLING-DOWN) for at least 5
minutes to let it cool down gradually. Then stop the
engine and take the following inspection and servicing.
1. Check to see if the coolant runs short or if there is any
coolant leak;
2. Check to see if there is any obstacle around the
cooling air inlet or outlet;
3. Check to see if there is any dirt or dust between
radiator fins and tube;
4. Check to see if the fan belt is too loose; and
5. Check to see if radiator water pipe is clogged.
BOil pressure lamp
The lamp lights up to warn the operator that the engine
oil pressure has dropped below the prescribed level. If
this should happen during operation or should not go off
even after the engine is accelerated more than
1000rpm, immediately stop the engine and check the
following:
1. Engine oil level (See "ENGINE OIL" in "PERIODIC
SERVICE" Section.)
BFuel
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
AFluid escaping from pinholes may
be invisible. Do not use hands to
search for suspected leaks; Use a
piece of cardboard or wood,
instead. If injured by escaping fluid,
see a medical doctor at once. This
fluid can produce gangrene or a
severe allergic reaction.
ACheck any leaks from fuel pipes or
fuel injection pipes. Use eye
protection when checking for leaks.
1. Return the speed control lever to low

7OPERATING THE ENGINE
ENGLISH
Be careful not to empty the fuel tank. Otherwise air may
enter the fuel system, requiring fuel system bleeding.
(See "FUEL" in "PERIODIC SERVICE" Section.)
BColor of exhaust
While the engine is run within the rated output range:
AThe color of exhaust remains colorless.
AIf the output slightly exceeds the rated level, exhaust
may become a little colored with the output level kept
constant.
AIf the engine is run continuously with dark exhaust
emission, it may lead to trouble with the engine.
BImmediately stop the engine if;
AThe engine suddenly slows down or accelerates.
AUnusual noises are suddenly appear.
AExhaust fumes suddenly become very dark.
AThe oil pressure lamp or the water temperature
alarm lamp lights up.
REVERSED ENGINE REVOLUTION AND
REMEDIES
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
AReversed engine operation can
make the machine reverse and run it
backwards. It may lead to serious
trouble.
AReversed engine operation may
make exhaust gas gush out into the
intake side and ignite the air
cleaner; It could catch fire.
Reversed engine revolution must be stopped
immediately since engine oil circulation is cut quickly,
leading to serious trouble.
BHow to tell when the engine starts running
backwards
1. Lubricating oil pressure drops sharply. Oil pressure
warning light, if used, will light.
2. Since the intake and exhaust sides are reversed, the
sound of the engine changes, and exhaust gas will
come out of the air cleaner.
3. A louder knocking sound will be heard when the
engine starts running backwards.
BRemedies
1. Immediately set the engine stop lever to the "STOP"
position to stop the engine.
2. After stopping the engine, check the air cleaner,
intake rubber tube and then other parts and replace
parts as needed.
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
AOperate, use and maintain the engine, including the
emission control system in accordance with the
instructions provided to the end users, so that the
engine's emissions performance is kept within the
requirements applicable to the engine's category.
ADo not deliberately tamper, or misuse, the engine
emission control system, especially with regard to
deactivating or not maintaining an exhaust gas
recirculation (EGR) system or a reagent dosing
system.
AWhen a warning indicator lights up, the engine is
experiencing trouble, which may also cause
problems in the emission control system. Take
prompt action and rectify any incorrect operation,
use, or maintenance of the emission control system
in accordance with the rectification measures. (See
"TROUBLESHOOTING" or, where applicable,
"OPERATOR WARNING AND INDUCEMENT".)
PRECAUTIONS ON GENERATOR-
EQUIPPED ENGINE
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
If the engine is kept running under no
load or light load (load factor below
30%), unburnt fuel or carbon builds up in
the exhaust system. As a result, the
engine may get damaged or cause a fire.
Run the engine under enough load at
regular intervals to remove unburnt
fuel and carbon deposits.
ABefore doing the load operation,
make sure there is nothing
flammable around the engine.
ADo not put a load all at once on the
engine, but gradually.
AIf by any chance, spark rises out of
the muffler outlet, DO NOT GET
THE ENGINE UNLOADED, BUT
INTERRUPT IT IMMEDIATELY.
