Checking engine oil levelÐCummins B and Caterpillar 3126 B engines
Refer to the appropriate engine operator's manual for information on the
engine oil.

ENGINE COOLANT
Checking coolant level
Refer to the Scheduled Maintenance
Guide for the appropriate intervals
for checking the engine coolant
level. Check the engine coolant level
in the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cold.
If the coolant level has not been
checked at the recommended
interval, the coolant reservoir may
become empty. If this occurs, a
STOP ENGINE warning lamp will
illuminate (if equipped).
If necessary, add a mixture of 50% engine coolant concentrate and 50%
water (50/50 ratio) to the coolant reservoir to bring the engine coolant
level to within the cold fill range on the reservoir. For more information
on engine coolant, refer toAdding and replacing engine coolantin
this chapter.
Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is
running or hot or personal injury may occur.
If you must remove the coolant reservoir cap, follow these steps to avoid
personal injury:
1. Before you remove the cap, turn the engine off and let the engine
cool.
2. When the engine is cool, wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Slowly
turn the cap counterclockwise until pressure begins to release.
3. Step back while the pressure releases.
4. Once you are sure that all the pressure has been released, use the
cloth to turn the cap counterclockwise and remove it.
Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine coolant,
antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified function and
vehicle location.

WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Check the wiper blades at least twice a year or when they seem less
effective. Substances such as tree sap and some hot wax treatments used
by commercial car washes reduce the effectiveness of wiper blades.
Checking the wiper blades
If the wiper blades do not wipe properly, clean both the windshield and
wiper blades using undiluted windshield wiper solution or a mild
detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. To avoid damaging the
blades, do not use fuel, kerosene, paint thinner or other solvents.
Changing the wiper blades
To replace the wiper blades:
1. Pull the wiper arm away from the
windshield and lock into the service
position.
2. Turn the blade at an angle from
the wiper arm. Push the lock pin
manually to release the blade and
pull the wiper blade down toward
the windshield to remove it from the
arm.
3. Attach the new wiper to the
wiper arm and press it into place
until a click is heard.

Fuel filter/water separator
The fuel filter/water separator removes any contaminated particles
and/or water from the fuel before the fuel enters the engine.
The fuel filter/water separator should be drained as recommended in the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide.
Draining the fuel filter/water separatorÐCaterpillar 3126 B engine
1. With the engine off, open the
drain valve located at the bottom of
the fuel filter/water separator by
turning it counterclockwise.
2. Drain the filter until clear fuel is visible.
3. Turn the drain valve clockwise to close the valve. Do not overtighten the
drain valve as this could cause damage to the fuel filter/water separator.
Draining the fuel filter/water separatorÐ7.3L Power Stoke engine
1. With the engine off, open the
drain valve located on the side of
the fuel filter/water separator using
your hand.
2. Drain the filter until clear fuel is visible.
3. Close the drain valve completely.
