CHECKING THE WATER TRAP
The intervals at which you should check the water trap
depend entirely on the amount of water in the fuel and the
care taken when re-fuelling. The normal interval is once a
week.
- Loosen hexagon screw „1“with approx. 3-4 rotations.
– Trap the drops which emerge in a transparent vessel.
Since water has a greater specific gravity than diesel fuel,
the water emerges before the diesel fuel. The two sub-
stances separate at a clearly visible line.
– As soon as diesel only emerges at screw „1“,this can be
tightened again.
If an external water trap is attached, check its water con-
tent every day, when the engine oil level is checked. The
water which has collected is separated at a clearly visible
line from the diesel fuel above it.
– Open drain plug „1“and drain the water out into a suit-
able vessel.
– If the drain plug is difficult to reach, an extension hose
can be attached to it.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
The engine must be standing level and be switched off.
Only change the oil when the engine is warm.
DANGER OF SCALDING FROM HOT OIL! TRAP THE OLD OIL AND
DISPOSE OF IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL LEGISLATION.
– Take out oil drain plug „1“and allow the oil to drain out,
Fig. A without oil sump, Fig. B with oil sump.
– Clean the oil drain plug „1“, fit a new washer „2“,insert
and tighten. Tightening torque: 50 Nm.
–Add engine oil.
