OPERATING THE ENGINE EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT DEVICES OPERATING THE ENGINE WARNING To avoid personal injury or death: Read and understand the safe operation section. Read and understand the safety labels located on the tractor. To avoid the danger of exhaust fume poisoning, do not operate the engine in a closed building without proper ventilation. Never start the engine while standing on the ground. Start the engine only from operator's seat. Make it a rule to set all shift levers to the “NEUTRAL” positions and to place PTO clutch control switch in position before starting the engine.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) MUFFLER This tractor is equipped with an engine with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) muffler which serves to reduce hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and other toxic gases, all of which are contained in diesel engine emissions, to harmless carbon dioxide and water. The DPF also traps particulate matter (PM). Please handle exhaust aftertreatment devices correctly and in an environmentally responsible manner. Details regarding safe operation can be found in a different section. (See SAFE OPERATION on page 7.) IMPORTANT : Do not use starting fluid or ether.
To protect the battery and the starter, make sure that the starter is not continuously turned for more than 10 seconds. (1) Diesel particulate filter (DPF) 1. Handling points EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT DEVICES When a specific amount of particulate matter (PM) has accumulated in the DPF muffler, it is necessary to refresh the DPF muffler by burning the PM inside it. This burning off work is called “Regeneration” . To extend operating time to reach this regeneration, and to avoid DPF muffler trouble, make sure to observe the following handling matters. WARNING To avoid personal injury or death:
During diesel particulate filter (DPF) regenerating operations, exhaust gases and exhaust filter components reach temperatures hot enough to burn people or ignite or melt common materials. Keep tractor away from people, animals or structures which may be susceptible to harm or damage from hot exhaust gases. During regeneration, white exhaust gases may be visible. Do not allow regeneration in an unventilated garage or confined area. During regeneration, do not leave the tractor. Fuel Be sure to use ultra-low sulfur fuel (S15). IMPORTANT : Use of diesel fuel other than ultra-low sulfur fuel may adversely affect the engine and DPF performance.
Use of fuels other than ultra-low sulfur fuel (S15) may not meet regulations for your region. Engine oil Use DPF-compatible oil (CJ-4) for the engine. 36 M5091,M5111
