INITIAL SERVICING
The engine (Figure 1) must be checked for proper lubrication and
filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the manufacturers Engine
manual for instructions & details of operation and servicing.
1. Fuel Filler Cap/Fuel tank – Pull this latch to add
diesel
fuel to the tank. After refueling, always make sure the fuel
cap is latched properly. DO NOT over fill. For additional
information refer to engine owner's manual.
Operating the engine without an air
filter, with a damaged air filter, or a
filter in need of replacement will allow
dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid
engine wear.
6. Engine Motor Mounts – Attach these engine mounts to
the mixer frame. Tighten securely.
7. Oil Filter – Remove this bolt to gain access (internal) to
the engine oil filter. Service the oil filter as recommended
in the maintenance section of this manual.
8. Oil Drain Plugs – There are two oil drain plugs, one is
underneath the flywheel, the other on the side of the engine.
Remove these plugs to drain engine oil from the engine.
9. Crankshaft – Connect this shaft to the input of the
transmission.
10. Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.
11. Nameplate – Contains information about the engine.
2. Engine Lifting Straps/Cover – Remove the air cleaner
cover, then lift this cover (the one with decals on it) to gain
access to the engine lifting straps.
3. Air Cleaner/Cover – Prevents dirt and other debris from
entering the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on side of air
filter cover to gain access to filter element.
4. Speed Control Lever – This lever is connected to the
throttle control which is located on the side of the engine
compartment cover. Use this lever to control engine speed.
5. Dip Stick – Remove dipstick to determine if the engine oil
level is low. If low add oil as specified in Table 4, page 18.

DANGER
Adding fuel to the tank should be accomplished
only when the engine is stopped and has had an
opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel
spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until the
fuel residue has been completely wiped up, and
the area surrounding the engine is dry.
Engine components can generate extreme heat.
To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these areas
while the engine is running or immediately after
operating. NEVER operate the engine with the
muffler removed.
