OPERATION 14.2 PRECAUTIONS AFTER COMPLETION OF WORK Protect the machine from mud and water, which can freeze overnight, preventing movement the following morning. Observe the following precautions. Completely remove mud and water from the machine. Park the machine on hard, dry ground. If this is not possible, park the machine on wooden boards. The boards will help protect the machine from freezing to the soil. Drain water from the fuel system, to prevent it from freezing there. Cover the battery or remove it from the machine for storage in a warmer place because battery capacity drops in low temperatures. Reinstall the battery when necessary the next morning.
14.3 AFTER COLD WEATHER Proceed as follows when resuming warm weather operation. Replace the fuel and oil, use oil of the viscosity specified. For details, see “20.1 PROPER SELECTION OF FUEL, COOLANT AND LUBRICANTS” on page 3-40. If for any reason permanent antifreeze cannot be used, and ethyl glycol base antifreeze (winter, one-season type) is used instead, or if no antifreeze is used, drain the cooling system completely, then clean out the inside of the cooling system thoroughly, and fill with fresh water. 2-77 WA420-3MC
