NOTE: Check the condition of the fan and air pump belts after every 50 hours of operation. Check belt tension after

every 300 hours of operation.

Fan and alternator belt

The belt- (1) that drives the cooling fan and alternator is

located at the front of the engine.

When 5 kg (11 lb) of pressure is applied midway between

the belt pulleys, a correctly tightened belt will deflect 5 mm

(0.2 in) .at point (A).

If the fan belt is slipping, fan efficiency is lowered, resulting

in the engine running too hot. or the alternator not charging

If the belt is too tight, the life of the alternator bearing will

be shortened. If the fan belt shows signs of cracking or

fraying, install a new one.

NHIL13CT01234AA

Air pump belt

The belt (2) that drives the engine air pump is located at

the front of the engine.

When 5 kg (11 lb) of pressure is applied midway between

the belt pulleys, a correctly tightened belt will deflect

10 mm (0.4 in) .at point (A).

If the air pump belt is slipping, pump efficiency is lowered.

Resulting in the (DPF) burning not operating at a high

enough temperature or difficulty in starting burner. If the

belt is too tight, the life of the pump bearing will be short-

ened. If the fan belt shows signs of cracking or fraying,

install a new one.

Tires and wheels

NOTE: Check tire pressure after every 50 hours of opera-

tion or weekly.

Tire inflation pressure affects the amount of weight a tire

can carry. Check the air pressure in your tractor tires, then

locate the tires in the 9-2 chart found in this manual. If nec-

essary, adjust the tire pressure, being careful not to over-

inflate or under inflate. Observe the following guidelines:

WARNING

Explosion hazard!

A tire can explode during inflation. Prop-

erly seat the tire before inflating. Never in-

crease air pressure beyond 240 kPa (35 psi)

to seat the bead on the wheel rim. Never

use force on a partially or fully inflated tire.

Do not exceed the inflation pressure recom-

mended by the tire manufacturer.

Failure to comply could result in death or

serious injury.

W0456A

• Do not inflate a tire above the maximum pressure

shown on the tire. If the tire is not marked, do not

exceed the maximum pressure shown in the Tire In-

flation chart found in this manual.

• Do not reinflate a tire that has been run flat or seri-

ously under inflated until the tire has been inspected

for damage by a qualified person.

• When checking tire pressure, inspect the tire for

damaged sidewalls and tread cuts. Neglected dam-

age leads to early tire failure.

7-22

7 - MAINTENANCE

If you must inflate or service tires, follow these safety

precautions to avoid injury or fatality:

•

Make sure the rim is clean and free of rust.

•

Lubricate both tire beads and rim flanges with soap

solution. Do not use oil or grease.

•

Use a clip-on tire chuck with a remote hose and

gauge. This allows the operator to stand clear of the

tire while inflating.

•

NEVER INFLATE TO OVER 241 kPa (35 psi) TO

SEAT BEADS. If beads have not been seated by the

time pressure reaches 241 kPa (35 psi), deflate the

assembly, reposition the tire on the rim, relubricate

both tire bead and rim flanges, and reinflate. Inflation

beyond 241 kPa (35 psi) with unseated beads may

break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient

enough to cause serious injury.

•

After seating the beads, adjust inflation pressure to

recommended operating pressure.

•

Do not inflate a tire unless the rim is mounted on the

tractor or is secured so that it will not move if the tire

or rim should suddenly fail.

•

Do not weld, braze, otherwise repair, or use a dam-

aged rim.

•

Never attempt tire repairs on a public road or high-

way

•

Use jack stands or other suitable blocking to support

the tractor while repairing tires.

•

Ensure jack has adequate capacity to lift your tractor.

•

Place jack on a firm, level surface.

•

Do not place any part of your body beneath the trac-

tor or start the engine while the tractor is on the jack.

•

Before adding ballast to the tires, refer to 6-2, 6-2,

6-4, and 9-3.

Front axle differential oil level

NOTE: Check the front axle differential case and final re-

duction gear case oil level after every 50 hours of operation.

1. With the tractor standing level and the engine off, check

the front axle oil level using the dipstick (1). located on

the left side of axle.

2. The oil is at the correct level when it reads between the

upper (A) and the lower (B) marks of the dipstick.

3. If capacity is low, add NEW HOLLAND AMBRA HYPOIDE

90 oil through the combined dipstick/filler plug. Do not

fill beyond the dipstick full mark, or the front axle and

differential housing will be overfilled.

4. Install the dipstick/filler plug.

Air cleaner - Primary element

NOTE: Clean the primary element after every 50 hours of

service. Extremely dusty conditions may require more fre-

quent service intervals.

1. Pull the primary element (1) from the canister. Clean

any loose dirt from the canister and inspect the end of

the canister for dirt which may prevent the new element

from sealing properly.

2. Clean the primary element using low air pressure (

2 Kg/cm² (30 psi) or less). Blow dust from the inside to

the outside of the element (opposite to normal air flow

through element).

NOTICE: Be careful not to rupture the filter element. Main-

NHIL13CT00995AA

tain a safe distance between the air nozzle and the filter

element when directing air up and down the clean air side

of the element pleats.

3. After cleaning the element, check the inner diameter

seals for damage. If damage is present, replace the

primary element.

4. Reinstall the primary element by inserting it into the

canister and pushing on the end of the element until

it is seated against the canister.

NOTE: Place a light inside the element to check for paper

leaks or for bonding of the paper to the end plate. If any

leaks are found, replace the element.

NOTE: If element is not inserted far enough into canister,

the end cap cannot be installed.

5. Place the end cap onto the canister body, push in on

end cap, and rotate clockwise. Make sure the end cap

is locked in place and not loose.
