REMARK
• The smell of the exhaust gas is different from that of the conventional diesel engine because of the exhaust
gas filtering function.
• White smoke may be discharged for a short time immediately after the engine is started or during the after-
treatment devices regeneration in the cold season, but this is not a failure.

• Immediately after starting the engine, avoid sudden starts, sudden acceleration, unnecessary sudden
stops, and sudden changes in direction of the machine.
METHOD FOR ENGINE WARM-UP OPERATION

If the oil temperature is low in a cold weather, the response
of machine for the control of the AJSS lever is slow, and
the machine may move differently from the operator's in-
tension.
In such case, use the frame lock bar to secure safety, and
perform the warm-up operation in a large place. At that
