INFORMATION
OPERATE SAFELY
• Do not use the machine after you consume alcohol
or medication or when you are tired.
• Put on applicable clothing and safety equipment.
• Use applicable tools only. Do not use alternative
tools or parts.
• When 2 or more persons do servicing, make sure
that you do it safely.
• Do not operate below the machine that only a jack
holds. Always use a safety stand to hold the
machine.
• Do not touch the hot parts or parts that turn when the
engine operates.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine
operates, or immediately after it stops. If not, hot
water can spout out from the radiator. Only remove
the radiator cap when it is at a sufficiently low
temperature to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen
the cap to release the pressure before you remove it
fully.
• Released fluid (fuel or hydraulic oil) under pressure
can cause damage to the skin and cause serious
injury. Release the pressure before you disconnect
hydraulic or fuel lines. Tighten all connections before
you apply the pressure.
• Do not open a fuel system under high pressure.
The fluid under high pressure that stays in fuel lines
can cause serious injury. Do not disconnect or repair
the fuel lines, sensors, or any other components
between the fuel pump and injectors on engines with
a common rail fuel system under high pressure.
• Put on an applicable ear protective device (earmuffs
or earplugs) to prevent injury against loud noises.
• Be careful about electric shock. The engine
generates a high voltage of more than DC100 V in
the ECU and is applied to the injector.

GENERAL
Engine Oil
• Oil used in the engine should have an American Petroleum Institute (API) service classification and
Proper SAE Engine Oil according to the ambient temperatures as shown above:
• With the emission control now in effect, the CF-4 and CG-4 lubricating oils have been developed for use
of a low-sulfur fuel on on-road vehicle engines. When an off-road vehicle engine runs on a high-sulfur
fuel, it is advisable to employ the "CF or better" lubricating oil with a high Total Base Number (TBN of 10
minimum).
• Refer to the following table for the suitable API classification engine oil according to the engine type (with
internal EGR, external EGR or non-EGR) and the fuel (low-sulfur or high-sulfur fuel).
Fuel used
Engine oil classification (API classification)
Engines except external EGREngines with external EGR
CF
High Sulfur Fuel
(≥ 500 ppm)
(If the "CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, or CI-4"
lubricating oil is used with a high-sulfur
fuel, change the lubricating oil at shorter
(Class CF-4, CG-4 and CH-4 engine oils
cannot be used on EGR type engines)
EGR: Exhaust Gas re-circulation
• The CJ-4 engine oil is intended for DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) Type engines, and cannot be used on
this machine.
Without EGRWith external EGR
ModelL4100—
Fuel
• Cetane number of 45 minimum. Cetane number greater then 50 is preferred, especially for temperatures
below −20 °C (−4 °F) or elevations above 1500 m (5000 ft).
• If diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 0.5 % sulfur content in used, reduce the service interval for
engine oil and filter by 50%.
• DO NOT use diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 1.0 %.
• Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 are recommended.
• No.2-D is a distillate fuel of lower volatility for engine in industrial and heavy mobile service. (SAE J313
JUB87)
• Since this engine adopts EPA Tier 4 and Interim Tier 4 standards, the use of low sulfur fuel or ultra low
sulfur fuel is mandatory in EPA regulated area (North America). Therefore, please use No.2-D S500 or S15
diesel fuel as an alternative to No.2-D, or use No.1-D S500 or S15 diesel fuel as an alternative to No.1-D if
outside air temperature is below −10 °C (14 °F).
Transmission oil
• The oil used to lubricate the transmission is also used as hydraulic fluid. To insure proper operation of
the hydraulic system and to complete lubrication of the transmission, it is important that a multi-grade
transmission fluid is used in this system. We recommend the use of KUBOTA UDT or SUPER UDT fluid
for optimum protection and performance.
Do not mix different brands together.
Q Indicated capacities of water and oil are manufacturer's estimate.

Greasing
1. Apply a grease to the following position as figures.
• Apply a small amount of multipurpose grease to the
following points every 50 hours.
If you operated the machine in extremely wet and muddy
conditions, lubricate grease fittings more often.
• When applying a grease to the front axle support, remove
the breather plug and apply a grease until grease overflows
from breather plug. After greasing reinstall the plug.
• Do not use or charge the refillable type battery if the fluid
level is below the LOWER (lower limit level) mark.
Otherwise, the battery component parts may prematurely
deteriorate, which may shorten the battery's service life or
cause an explosion. Check the fluid level regularly and add
distilled water as required so that the fluid level is between
the UPPER and LOWER levels.
• Never remove the vent plugs while the engine is running.
• Keep electrolyte away from eyes, hands and clothes. If you
are splashed with it, wash it away completely with water
immediately and get medical attention.
• Wear eye protection and rubber gloves when working
around battery.
• The factory-installed battery is of non-refillable type. If the
indicator turns white, do not charge the battery but replace
it with new one.
1. Mishandling the battery shortens the service life and adds to
maintenance costs.
2. The original battery is maintenance free type battery, but needs
some servicing.
If the battery is weak, the engine is difficult to start and the lights
will be dim. It is important to check the battery periodically.
3. Check the battery condition by reading the indicator.
State of indicator display:
Green: Specify gravity of electrolyte and quality of electrolyte
are both in good condition.
Black: Need to charge the battery.
White: battery needs to be replaced.

Battery Charging
• When the battery is being activated, hydrogen and oxygen
gases in the battery are extremely explosive. Keep open
sparks and flames away from the battery at all times,
especially when charging the battery.
• When charging the battery, ensure the vent caps are
securely in place (if equipped).
• When disconnecting the cable from the battery, start with
the negative terminal first.
When connecting the cable to the battery, start with the
positive terminal first.
• Never check battery charge by placing a metal object
across the posts.
Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
1. To slow charge the battery, connect the battery positive terminal
to the charger positive terminal and the negative to the negative,
then recharge in the standard fashion.
2. A boost charge is only for emergencies. It will partially charge
the battery at a high rate and in a short time.
When using a boost-charged battery, it is necessary to recharge
the battery as early as possible.
Failure to do this will shorten the battery's service life.
3. The battery is charged if the indicator display turns green from
black.
4. When exchanging an old battery into new one, use battery of
equal specification shown in table 1.

Q Anti-Freeze
• When using antifreeze, put on some protection such as
rubber gloves (Antifreeze contains poison.).
• If should drink antifreeze, throw up at once and take
medical attention.
• When antifreeze comes in contact with the skin or clothing,
wash it off immediately.
• Do not mix different types of Antifreeze.
The mixture can produce chemical reaction causing
harmful substances.
• Antifreeze is extremely flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Keep fire and children away from
antifreeze.
• When draining fluids from the engine, place some
container underneath the engine body.
• Do not pour waste onto the grounds, down a drain, or into
any water source.
• Also, observe the relevant environmental protection
regulations when disposing of antifreeze.
If it freezes, coolant can damage the cylinders and radiator. If
the ambient temperature falls below 0 °C (32 °F) or before a
long-term storage, let out cooling water completely, or mix fresh
water with long-life coolant and fill the radiator and reserve tank with
the mixture.
1. Long-life coolant (hereafter LLC) comes in several types. Use
ethylene glycol (EG) type for this engine.
2. Before employing LLC-mixed cooling water, fill the radiator with
fresh water and empty it again.
Repeat this procedure 2 or 3 times to clean up the inside.
3. Mixing the LLC
Put the LLC in cooling water in the percentage (%) for a target
temperature. When mixing, stir it up well, and then fill into the
radiator.
4. The procedure for the mixing of water and antifreeze differs
according to the make of the antifreeze and the ambient
temperature. Refer to SAE J1034 standard, more specifically
also to SAE J814c.

5. Adding the LLC
a) Add only water if the mixture reduces in amount by
evaporation.
b) If there is a mixture leak, add the LLC of the same
manufacturer and type in the same mixture percentage.
**Never add any long-life coolant of different manufacturer.
(Different brands may have different additive components, and
the engine may fail to perform as specified.)
• The above date represent industry standards that
necessitate a minimum glycol content in the concentrates
anti-freeze.
• When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add water
only. In case of leakage, add anti-freeze and water in the
specified mixing ratio.
• Anti-freeze absorbs moisture. Keep unused anti-freeze in a
tightly sealed container.
• Do not use radiator cleaning agents when anti-freeze has
been added to the coolant. (Anti-freeze contains an
anti-corrosive agent, which will react with the radiator
cleaning agent forming sludge which will affect the engine
parts.)

[3] TIRE LIQUID INJECTION
Auxiliary weights can be used to increase traction force for plowing in fields or clayey ground.
Another way is to inject water or another liquid, such as a calcium chloride solution in the tires. Water must not
be used in winter since it freezes at 0 °C (32 °F). The calcium chloride solution will not freeze and moreover, affords
higher effect than water since its specific gravity is higher than that of water by about 20 %. Below is an explanation
of calcium chloride solution injection.
• Do not fill the front tires with liquid.
9Y1210278GEG0059US0
Preparation of Calcium Chloride Solution
• When making a calcium chloride solution, do not pour
water over calcium chloride since this results in chemical
reaction which will cause high temperature. Instead add a
small amount of calcium chloride to the water at a time until
the desired solution is achieved.

Injection
• When a calcium chloride solution is used, cool it before
pouring it into the tire.
• Do not fill tires with water or solution more than 75 % of full
capacity (to the valve stem level).
The following four ways can be used to inject water or a calcium
chloride solution into tires.
1. Gravity injection (Fig. 1)
2. Pump injection (Fig. 2)
3. Pressure tank injection (Fig. 3)
4. Injection directly from top (only when water is being used).
• Once injection is completed, reset the air valve, and pump
air into the tire to the specified pressure.

2. COOLING SYSTEM ................................................................................................................... 1-M2
A lubricating system consists of an oil strainer (9), oil pump (8), relief valve (10), oil filter cartridge (11) and oil
pressure switch (2).
The oil pump sucks lubricating oil from the oil pan through the oil strainer and the oil flows down to the oil filter
cartridge where it is further filtered. Then the oil is forced to crankshaft (7), connecting rods (16), idle gear (6),
governor shaft (5), camshaft (14) and rocker arm shaft (3) to lubricate each part thorough the oil gallery.

2. COOLING SYSTEM
ENGINE
Bottom bypass system is introduced in 03-M Series
for improving the cooling performance of the radiator.
While the temperature of coolant in the engine is low,
the thermostat is held closed and the coolant is allowed
to flow through the bypass pipe and to circulate in the
engine.
When the temperature exceeds the thermostat valve
opening level, the thermostat fully opens itself to prevent
the hot coolant from flowing through the bypass into the
engine.
In this way, the radiator can increase its cooling
performance.
The fuel system of this tractor is shown in the diagram above.
Fuel from the tank flows in the passage as shown by the arrows, and is injected from the nozzle via the fuel
injection pump. Overflow fuel returns to the tank.
The system includes filters and other concerns to protect it from entrance of air, water and dust.
While the engine is running, fuel is fed into the injection pump (6) by the fuel feed pump (8) after passing through
the fuel filter (7). The fuel camshaft actuates the injection pump and force-feeds fuel to the injection nozzle (2) through
the injection pipe (3). Fuel is then sprayed through the nozzle into the combustion chamber. The fuel discharged after
lubricating and cooling the injection nozzle is returned to the fuel tank (4) automatically through the overflow pipe (1).

7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 for each cylinder.
8. If the measurement is below the allowable limit, apply a small
amount of oil to the cylinder wall through the nozzle hole and
measure the compression pressure again.
9. If the compression pressure is still less than the allowable limit,
check the top clearance, valve cylinder.
10. If the compression pressure increases after applying oil, check
the cylinder wall and piston rings.
ENGINE
• Check the compression pressure with the specified valve
clearance.
• Always use a fully charged battery for performing this test.
• Variance in cylinder compression values should be under
10 %.

• Valve clearance must be checked and adjusted when
engine is cold.
1. Remove the head cover, the glow plugs and the timing window
cover on the clutch housing.
2. Align the "TC" mark line on the flywheel and center or timing
window so that the No.1 piston comes to the compression or
overlap top dead center.
3. Check the following valve clearance marked with "," using a
feller gauge.
4. If the clearance is not within the factory specifications, adjust
with the adjusting screw.
5. Finally turn the flywheel 6.28 rad (360 °), and align the "TC"
marking line and the center of timing window. adjust all the other
valve clearance as required.

0.0071 to 0.0086 in.
• The "TC" marking line on the flywheel is just for No.1
cylinder. There is no "TC" marking for the other cylinders.
• No. 1 piston comes to the T.D.C. position when the "TC"
marking is aligned with center of timing window on
clutch-housing. Turn the flywheel 0.26 rad (15 °) clockwise
and counterclockwise to see if the piston is at the
compression top dead center or the overlap position. Now
referring to the table below, readjust the valve clearance.
(The piston is at the compression top dead center when
both the IN. and EX. valves do not move; it is at the overlap
position when both the valves move.)

3. Set the speed control lever to maximum fuel discharge position.
(Reference)
• Turn the flywheel with screwdriver.
4. Turn the flywheel counterclockwise (facing the flywheel) until
the fuel fills up to the hole of the delivery valve holder for 1st
cylinder.
5. Turn the flywheel further and stop turning when the fuel begins
to flow over, to get the present injection timing.
6. (The flywheel has mark 1TC and four lines indicating every
0.09 rad (5 °) of crank angle from 0.17 rad (10 °) to 0.44 rad
(25 °) before mark 1TC) Calculate the angle which the center of
the window points out. If the calculation differs from specified
injection timing, add or remove the shim to adjust.

• The sealant is applied to both sides of the soft metal gasket
shim. The liquid gasket is not required for assembling.
• Shims are available in thickness of 0.175 mm (6), 0.20 mm
(3), 0.25 mm (4) and 0.30 mm (5). Combine these shims for
adjustments.
• The 0.175 mm thick shim is coated only on the lower face.
Therefore, do not use the 0.175 mm thick shim as the top
shim of the combination (injection pump side), because
this cause oil leakage.
• Addition or reduction of shim (0.05 mm, 0.002 in.) delays or
advances the injection timing by approx. 0.009 rad (0.5 °).
• In disassembling and replacing, be sure to use the same
number of new gasket shims with the same thickness.
