The standard range of ambient temperatures for the normal operation of Kubota® engines is from +5 f (-15 c) to +104 f (+40 c).
-
If the ambient temperature exceeds +104 f (+40 c), the engine may overheat and cause the engine oil to break down.
If the ambient temperature is between +5 f (-15 c) and -25 f (-32 c), POLARIS recommends the use of a block heater.
