2. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT 2.2.4 Inspection every 250 hours or 3 months Be sure to check the following points every 250 hours or 3 months operation, whichever comes first. (1) Lube oil and filter replacement (The second replacement and after) Replace the engine oil every 250 hours or 3 months operation from 2nd time and on. Replace the engine oil filter at the same time. Refer to 2.2.1.(1). (2) Radiator fin cleaning Beware of dirt from air blowing Wear protective equipment such as goggles to protect your eyes when blow- ing compressed air. Dust or flying debris can hurt eyes. Dirt and dust adhering on the radiator fins reduce the cooling performance, causing over- heating.
Make it a rule to check the radiator fins daily and clean as needed. Blow off dirt and dust from fins and periphery with compressed air [0.19 MPa {2 kg/cm 2 } or less] not to damage the fins with com- pressed air. If contaminated heavily, apply detergent, thoroughly clean and rinse with tap water shower. IMPORTANT: Never use high pressure water or air from close by fins or never attempt to clean using a wire brush. Radiator fins can be damaged. (3) V-belt tension check (The second time and after) Check and adjust the V-belt tension. Refer to 2.2.2(2) 2-12 82E-5 – 98E-5 SERIES No.
