Parts and oil are still heated for some time after the engine stops. Start operations after the temperature drops.
Before the check, set the gear shift lever to the P (PARKING) position to prevent the machine from moving and confirm that the
respective levers are placed in the neutral position.
Carry out this procedure if there is any sign of oil on the transmission case, or if there is oil mixed with the cooling
water.
