1. SAFETY FIRST
WSM000001INI0001US1
BEFORE YOU START SERVICE
• Read all instructions and safety instructions in this
manual and on your engine safety decals.
• Clean the work area and engine.
• Park the machine on a stable and level ground.
• Let the temperature of the engine decrease before
you start a job.
• Stop the engine, then remove the key.
• Disconnect the battery negative cable.
• Hang a "DO NOT OPERATE" tag in the operator
station.
WSM000001INI0002US0
START SAFELY
• Do not do the procedures below when you start the
engine.
– short across starter terminals
– bypass the safety start switch
• Do not make unauthorized modifications to the
engine. This can cause damage and decrease the
engine life.
WSM000001INI0003US0
SAFETY FIRST
• This symbol, the industry's "Safety Alert Symbol", is used throughout this manual and on labels on the
machine itself to warn of the possibility of personal injury. Read these instructions carefully.
• It is essential that you read the instructions and safety regulations before you try to repair or use this
unit.
DANGER
• Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
• Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
• Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
IMPORTANT
• Indicates that equipment or property damage could result if instructions are not followed.
NOTE
• Gives helpful information.

OPERATE SAFELY
• Do not use the machine after you consume alcohol
or medication or when you are tired.
• Put on applicable clothing and safety equipment.
• Use applicable tools only. Do not use alternative
tools or parts.
• When 2 or more persons do servicing, make sure
that you do it safely.
• Do not touch the hot parts or parts that turn when the
engine operates.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine
operates, or immediately after it stops. If not, hot
water can spout out from the radiator. Only remove
the radiator cap when it is at a sufficiently low
temperature to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen
the cap to release the pressure before you remove it
fully.
• Released fluid (fuel or hydraulic oil) under pressure
can cause damage to the skin and cause serious
injury. Release the pressure before you disconnect
hydraulic or fuel lines. Tighten all connections before
you apply the pressure.
• Do not open a fuel system under high pressure.
The fluid under high pressure that stays in fuel lines
can cause serious injury. Do not disconnect or repair
the fuel lines, sensors, or any other components
between the fuel pump and injectors on engines with
a common rail fuel system under high pressure.
• Put on an applicable ear protective device (earmuffs
or earplugs) to prevent injury against loud noises.
9Y1210661INI0015US0
PREVENT A FIRE
• Fuel is very flammable and explosive under some
conditions. Do not smoke or let flames or sparks in
your work area.
• To prevent sparks from an accidental short circuit,
always disconnect the battery negative cable first
and connect it last.
• The battery gas can cause an explosion. Keep the
sparks and open flame away from the top of battery,
especially when you charge the battery.
• Make sure that you do not spill fuel on the engine.
WSM000001INI0005US0
KEEP A GOOD AIRFLOW IN THE WORK AREA
• If the engine is in operation, make sure that the area
has good airflow. Do not operate the engine in a
closed area. The exhaust gas contains poisonous
carbon monoxide.

DISCARD FLUIDS CORRECTLY
• Do not discard fluids on the ground, down the drain,
into a stream, pond, or lake. Obey related
environmental protection regulations when you
discard oil, fuel, coolant, electrolyte and other
dangerous waste.
WSM000001INI0007US0
PREVENT ACID BURNS
• Keep electrolyte away from your eyes, hands and
clothing. Sulfuric acid in battery electrolyte is
poisonous and it can burn your skin and clothing and
cause blindness. If you spill electrolyte on yourself,
clean yourself with water, and get medical aid
immediately.
WSM000001INI0008US0
PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES
• Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher ready at all
times.
• Keep the emergency contact telephone numbers
near your telephone at all times.

[1] THREE-WAY CATALYST
A three-way catalyst is a catalyst that oxidizes HC to CO2and H2O and also CO to CO2respectively and at the
same time reduces NOx to N2near the stoichiometric ratio.
The main basic component of an exhaust gas purification system that uses a three-way catalyst is feedback
control of air-fuel ratio by means of an O2sensor for the purpose of maximizing the emission purification efficiency
characteristic with reference to the intake air-fuel ratio of the three-way catalyst.
KUBOTA engines have two kinds of catalytic devices, catalytic muffler and catalytic converter.

[2] VAPORIZER AND LOCK OFF VALVE
(WG1605-L-E3, WG1605-N, WG1605-GL-E3, WG1605-LN-E3,
WG1605-GLN-E3)
Vaporizer requires a normally-closed electrically controlled fuel lock off valve that is close coupled to the vaporizer
and off when ignition switch is off or when the engine is not running normally (supplied from KUBOTA). In operation
without a lock off upstream the vaporizer will flow fuel with the engine off. The vaporizer is not a fuel shut-off safety
device.
9Y1210661INI0016US0
[3] LENGTH OF THE VAPOR HOSE
(WG1605-L-E3, WG1605-N, WG1605-GL-E3, WG1605-LN-E3,
WG1605-GLN-E3)
Vapor hose length must not exceed 700 mm (27.6 in), shorter is generally considered better. Care should be
taken with hose routing and length to minimize the affect on vaporizer vibration isolation. The metal reinforced hose
should not be used.

[4] IMPORTANT NOTICE
These instructions are provided to the Final Engine Assemblers (FEA) who must ensure the engine, exhaust
system (catalyst), fuel system etc, are installed correctly in the engine's certified configuration.
Please make sure whether emission-related items are certain on application review.
(for EPA only)
Failing to follow these instructions when installing a certified engine in a piece of nonroad equipment violates
federal law (40 CFR 1068.105(b)), subject to fines or other penalties as described in the Clean Air Act.
The contractual agreement contract is necessary before mass-production.

[5] EMISSION-RELATED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(1) Exhaust System
KUBOTA supplies a certified catalyst. FEA must use a KUBOTA certified catalyst and assemble the exhaust
system parts according to the instructions.
No other catalyst is certified for use with WG1605 Engine. No Other Catalyst can be used.
FEA may only install the exhaust system parts confirmed at application review.
9Y1210661INI0019US0
(2) Intake System
To prevent decreases of engine output performance, intake resistance must be kept below a certain point.
9Y1210661INI0020US0
(3) Crankcase Ventilation Connections
Crankcase emissions may not be discharged directly into the ambient atmosphere throughout its useful life.
(40 CFR 1048.115 (a))
9Y1210661INI0021US0
(4) Gasoline Fuel System
If your equipment uses a volatile liquid fuel (such as gasoline), they must meet the evaporative emission
standards of 40 CFR 1048.

(5) Gaseous Fuel System
FEA must use only the vaporizer and the lock off valve KUBOTA offers and assemble the LPG fuel system parts
according to the instructions.
9Y1210661INI0023US0
(6) Engine Control Unit (ECU)
Installation must use all 4 of the vibration mounts.
ECU header pins must be horizontal or point downward.
9Y1210661INI0024US0
(7) Vehicle Interface Connectors
Vehicle interface connectors shall be connected with your wire harness.
9Y1210661INI0025US0
