CHAPTER 1 - GENERAL INFORMATION

RIGHT, LEFT, FRONT, AND REAR OF THE The CX compact excavator is a fully hydraulic
MACHINE machine. It consists of an undercarriage fitted with
tracks and a turntable bearing which supports the
upper structure frame. The upper structure frame
1 supports the attachment, at the front end of the

and 60% anti-freeze.
Contact your local Dealer to obtain information on the
correct method of disposing of these lubricants.
FUEL
Use diesel fuel suitable for the ambient temperature
conditions (ASTM-D-975).
Use fuel which is to ASTM (American Society for
Testing and Materials) D975 standard.
Use grade No. 2 fuel. The use of other types of fuel
can result in a loss of power of the engine and may
cause high fuel consumption.
In cold weather, it is tentatively approved to use a
mixture of fuels No. 1 and No. 2. Consult your fuel
supplier.
If the temperature falls below the fuel cloud point
(point at which wax begins to form) the wax crystals
will cause power loss or will prevent the engine from
starting.
In cold weather, fill the fuel tank at the end of the
day's work, in order to prevent the formation of
condensation.
FUEL STORAGE
Long storage can lead to the accumulation of
impurities and condensation in the fuel. Engine
trouble can often be traced to the presence of water
in the fuel.
The storage tank must be placed outside and the
temperature of the fuel should be kept as low as
possible. Drain off water and impurities regularly.

If the red ring (D) in the water separator sinks down
to the bottom of the case (F), no water is mixed in.
When the ring (D) is floating, water is mixed in up to
the level of the ring. Drain the mixed water in
accordance with the following procedures.
WARNING: Do not attempt this procedure if the
engine is hot. Allow time to cool all engine parts.
1. Place the function cancellation lever in the up or

DRAINING THE FUEL TANK


Since the water is accumulated during the night, it is
effective to drain it before starting up the engine in
the morning.
1. Swing the upper structure of the machine so the
drain valve (1) under the fuel tank comes midway
between the crawler shoes of left and right.
2. Place an empty container under the drain valve
to catch the fuel and sediments.

BS04J039 Figure 27

3. Slowly open the drain valve to drain any water
and sediments into the container.
4. When clean fuel begins to flow, close the drain

NOTE: Check for fuel leakage after closing the
drain valve.
