OPERATION OPERATION CHECK ELECTRIC WIRINGS G If the fuses frequently blow or if there are traces of short circuits on the electrical wiring, locate the cause immediately and carry out repairs, or contact your Komatsu distributor for repairs. G If flammable materials (dead leaves, twigs, dry grass, etc.) accumulate around the battery, they will cause fire, so always remove such material immediately. G Keep the top surface of the battery clean and check the breather hole in the battery cap. If it is clogged with dirt or dust, wash the battery cap to clean the breather hole. Check that there is no damage to the fuses and that a fuse of the correct capacity is being used.
Check that there are no disconnections or traces of short circuits on the electrical wiring. Check also that there are no loose termi- nals. Tighten any loose terminals. Be particularly careful to check the wiring of the battery, starting motor, and alternator. Always check also that there is no flammable materials accumulated around the engine.
