NOTE: Extended use of this accessory outlet can cause the battery to become heavily discharged.
LOW OIL WARNING LIGHT
The low oil warning light (9) is located on the instrument panel just to the left of the steering column (Figure 6 and
Figure 7). If the warning light lights up, oil should be checked and added to the engine as necessary before vehicle use
continues. The vehicle should never be driven when the low oil warning light remains lit. If the warning light alternately
lights and darkens, the vehicle may be driven, but oil should be added at the first opportunity. If the oil level is correct
and the warning light remains lit, have a trained technician check the vehicle. See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Failure to add oil immediately when the low oil warning light stays on may result in permanent
engine damage.
FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
The fuel gauge and hour meter (8) are housed together on the right side of the instrument panel (Figure 6 and Figure
7). The fuel gauge operates when the key switch is in the ON position and allows the operator to monitor the fuel
level in the vehicle. The hour meter operates only when the engine is running, and should be used by the trained
technician to track vehicle usage and determine when periodic service procedures are required. See Periodic
Service Schedule on page 33.

ENGINE OIL
Even though the low oil warning light on the instrument panel should illuminate if the oil level becomes low, the
engine oil level should be checked daily. The vehicle should be on a level surface when the oil is checked. Do not
overfill the engine with oil.
OIL PRESSURE – GASOLINE ENGINE
Kawasaki engine: The Kawasaki gasoline engine has an oil filter that is mounted on a bracket between and in front of
the engine and transmission. Inlet and outlet oil-carrying hoses enable oil circulation to and from the engine. See
following NOTE.
NOTE: The normal oil pressure value stated in the Kawasaki engine manual is 35-45 psi at idle; however, the remote
filter design causes oil pressure to be 18 psi, which is normal for this type of oil circulation design.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK
1. Remove the oil level dipstick from the oil filler tube and wipe oil from the dipstick (Figure 19 and Figure 20).
See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Do not remove dipstick while engine is running.
2. Check oil level by fully inserting the dipstick into the tube and immediately removing it.
3. If the oil level is at or below the low level mark on the dipstick gauge, add oil to the engine until the level is
between low and full levels (safe level). See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Do not exceed recommended oil capacity. Doing so will decrease engine performance or result in
damage to the engine.

GEARCASE LUBRICATION
NOTE: Dispose of used oil according to the environmental laws and regulations for your area.
LUBRICATION LEVEL CHECK FOR FRONT DIFFERENTIAL, TRANSMISSION, AND REAR
DIFFERENTIAL
Each gearcase component is equipped with two oil port plugs (1 and 2) (Figure 30, Figure 31, and Figure 32). When
the vehicle is on a level surface, use the level indicator hole (upper plug) (1) as a lubricant level indicator. Lubricant
level should be even with the bottom of level indicator hole (1).
LUBRICATION CHANGE FOR FRONT DIFFERENTIAL, TRANSMISSION, AND REAR
DIFFERENTIAL
Use the lower plug (2) for drainage (Figure 30, Figure 31, or Figure 32). Remove both plugs to allow the lubricant to
drain faster. See preceding NOTE.
Metal particles may be discovered in the fluid or on the magnetic drain plug when changing the differential or
transmission fluid. These particles are normal and expected for the first few fluid changes. This is a result of the gears
being “net forged”, meaning the gears are forged to a shape very close to the final gear size but the teeth are not finish
machined prior to assembly. The “finish machining” occurs when the gears make contact under load during vehicle
operation. The magnetic drain plug is included in the design to collect the metal particles generated from the gear
break in process. This is an established process and is not detrimental to gear service life.
Front differential:
Clean and install the drain plug (2) and washer before filling the front differential with new lubricant (Figure 30). Tighten
the drain plug to 108 in-lb (12 N·m). Use a funnel when filling the front differential through the lubricant level indicator
hole (1). See Periodic Lubrication Schedule on page 36.Tighten the level indicator plug to 120 in-lb (14 N·m).

BIODIESEL FUEL (DIESEL VEHICLES ONLY)
Biodiesel has unique qualities that should be considered before it is used in the Kubota D722 diesel engine. During
cold weather, plugged fuel lines, plugged fuel systems, hard starting, and other unknown failures can result from use
of this fuel.
Page 48
HUV 4421 Owner’s Manual
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Fueling Instructions
Biodiesel is an excellent medium for microbial growth and contamination. Microbial contamination can cause corrosion
of the fuel system and prematurely plugged fuel filters. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Use of biodiesel may result in premature failure of fuel system components. Kubota has documented problems
such as plugged fuel filters and deteriorated fuel lines during testing of biodiesel.
Biodiesel can damage painted surfaces. Be sure to remove all spilled fuel immediately to help prevent damage to
painted surfaces.
If biodiesel will be used in the Kubota D722 engine, be sure that it meets the following requirements:
• The fuel blend should contain no more than 5% biodiesel by volume.
• The petroleum portion of the fuel blend must meet ASTM standard D975 and the biodiesel portion of the fuel
blend must meet ASTM standard D6751.
• For Europe, the fuel blend must meet the EN590 standard. See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Never use any fuel that does not meet specifications or fuel in which the contents cannot be identified.
Using blends higher than 5% biodiesel content can affect engine life and cause deterioration of hoses,
tube lines, injectors, injector pump and seals.
• For more information on these fuel standards, please contact your nearest Kubota dealer.
If biodiesel is used, be sure to apply the following guidelines:
• Ensure the fuel tank is as full as possible at all times to prevent moisture from collecting.
• Ensure that the fuel tank cap is securely tightened to prevent water from entering the fuel tank.
• Drain all water from the fuel filter daily before operating vehicle. See Draining Water from Fuel Filter.
• Check the engine oil level daily before the engine is started. See Engine Oil Level Check on page 39.
• Before vehicle storage, run the engine with conventional diesel fuel for at least 30 minutes to flush the biodiesel
NOTE: Biodiesel does not have long-term stability and must not be left in engines longer than three months. This fuel
type attracts moisture and may contain higher water content than conventional diesel fuel.
Fuel system maintenance, cleaning, and fuel line replacement are required more frequently for engines that are
operated with biodiesel.

Cleaning the Vehicle
CAUTION
• The alternator can be damaged if the following actions occur:
– Engine is operated with battery cables disconnected.
– Booster cables are connected wrong.
223
Figure 39 Jump Starting
CLEANING THE VEHICLE
Each vehicle is equipped with hand-washable front and rear bodies. The vehicle has a powder-coated steel cargo bed
(or optional aluminum flat bed). Use commercial automotive cleaning solutions with a sponge or soft cloth for normal
cleaning. A garden hose at normal residential water pressure is adequate. To remove oxidation or discoloration from
aluminum, use a commercially available aluminum cleaner paste and fine grade (No. 00) steel wool.
The manufacturer does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process will
expose electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering electrical components can result in water damage and
subsequent component failure.
Use non-abrasive wax products. Battery acid, fertilizers, tars, asphalt, creosote, paint, or chewing gum should be
removed immediately to prevent possible stains.
The seats of the vehicle will last longer with proper cleaning. Use a solution of 10% liquid soap and warm water applied
with a soft cloth. For imbedded dirt, a soft bristle brush may be used. For heavy soiling, difficult stains, or scratches,
blemishes, or other body damage, see the appropriate maintenance and service manual. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Dispose of waste water properly.

Accessories
ACCESSORIES
There is a complete line of accessory equipment available from our dealers/distributors.
Care should be taken that these accessories are properly installed by trained technicians and that they are used in the
manner for which they were designed. See following WARNING and CAUTION.
WARNING
• Custom cab assemblies, canopy tops, weatherproof enclosures, and windshields will not protect
occupants from flying objects.
• If the vehicle is equipped with an electric-powered bed lift, remove the bed before servicing the
bed lift system.
CAUTION
• Do not drill into the driver-side frame. Failure to heed this caution could damage the engine by
allowing excessive contamination to enter the air intake system.
ELECTRIC WINCH ACCESSORY
If your vehicle is equipped with an electric winch, read and follow all manufacturer safety warnings and instructions in
the winch operator manual, as well as the following WARNING and CAUTION statements. Make sure a winch warning
decal is affixed to the vehicle on the seat support panel next to the receptacle for the remote operation switch.
The winch kit available includes a remote operation switch, which enables the operator to move away from the vehicle
and cable. See following WARNING and CAUTION.
WARNING
• Before beginning a winch operation:
– Turn key switch to the OFF position, put Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position, and
engage the park brake.
– Do not use winch while persons are seated on the vehicle.
• Stand to the side and away from the vehicle to operate winch.
CAUTION
• Use of the winch for an extended period of time could discharge the battery. Keep winch operations
as short as possible, and drive the vehicle for several minutes after the winch operation to recharge
the battery.
MUD TIRE OPTION
All-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles equipped with optional mud tires are intended only for off-road operation; they are
not designed for use on paved surfaces such as asphalt and concrete. Frequent driving on paved surfaces will
significantly decrease the life of the mud tires. Vehicle performance will also be reduced when driving on paved
surfaces. See following WARNING and CAUTION.

Subsequent Owner Registration
WARNING
• To avoid the risk of rollover when operating a vehicle equipped with mud tires on a paved surface:
reduce speed, use extreme caution, and drive slowly in turns.
• The diameter of all tires on the vehicle must be equal; otherwise the all-wheel drive system will not
operate as intended and could result in severe personal injury or death. Never install tires of different
diameters on the vehicle.
CAUTION
• Optional mud tires (off-road) are directional and must be installed according to the directional
arrow mark (arrow indicates forward rotation of the tire) on the side-wall of each tire, or the tread
performance will be severely compromised.
The tires are made specifically for the AWD vehicle; therefore, Husqvarna recommends that only tires purchased from
Husqvarna be used on your AWD vehicle.
SUBSEQUENT OWNER REGISTRATION
In the event a vehicle is bought as a used vehicle, we strongly urge the new owner to register the vehicle with
Husqvarna. This will enable us to contact you if the need arises. Please send your name, address, and serial number
of the vehicle to Husqvarna, 7349 Statesville Rd., Charlotte, NC 28269, Attention: Vehicle Registration.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, the ignition system, the
catalytic converter and related hoses, belts, connectors and other emission assemblies or components.
Where a warrantable condition exists, as defined herein, HUSQVARNA will repair your vehicle engine at no cost to
you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This emission control system is warranted for two years from the vehicles’ date of purchase. If any emission-related
part on your HUSQVARNA SORE is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by HUSQVARNA.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Warranties
- As the vehicle engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner’s manual. HUSQVARNA recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your vehicle engine,
but HUSQVARNA cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance.
- As the vehicle engine owner, you should however be aware that HUSQVARNA may deny you warranty coverage if
vehicle engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
- You are responsible for presenting vehicle engine to a HUSQVARNA distribution center as soon as a problem exists.
The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days. If you have any
questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact WARRANTY SERVICES, Husqvarna
Professional Products, Inc., 7349 STATESVILLE ROAD, CHARLOTTE, NC 28269.
HUSQVARNA EXPLANATION OF EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY:
1. WARRANTY:
HUSQVARNA warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the SORE and related
emissions equipment is designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable California environmental
emission regulations; and free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to
be identical in all material respects to that part as described in HUSQVARNA’s application for certification with CARB.
The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser or first placed
into service. The warranty period is two years from the date of purchase.
2. COVERAGE:
Subject to certain conditions and exclusions as stated below, the warranty on emission-related parts is as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions
supplied, is warranted for the warranty period stated above. If the part fails during the period of warranty coverage,
the part will be repaired or replaced by HUSQVARNA according to subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or
replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions supplied is warranted
for the warranty period stated above. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the
remaining original warranty period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions supplied
is warranted for the period of time before the first scheduled replacement date for that part. If the part fails before
the first scheduled replacement, the part will be repaired or replaced by HUSQVARNA according to subsection (4)
below. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the period prior
to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty provisions herein must be performed at a warranty
station* at no charge to the owner.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions herein, warranty services or repairs will be provided at all of our distribution centers
that are franchised to service the subject engines or equipment.
(6) The engine or equipment owner will not be charged for diagnostic labor that is directly associated with diagnosis of
a defective, emission-related warranted part, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station*.
(7) HUSQVARNA is liable for damages to other engine or equipment components proximately caused by a covered
failure under warranty of any warranted part.
(8) Throughout the engine or equipment warranty period stated above, HUSQVARNA will maintain a supply of
warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be
provided without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of HUSQVARNA.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of
any non-exempted add-on or modified parts by the ultimate purchaser will be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claims. HUSQVARNA will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted
add-on or modified part.
*HUSQVARNA, its authorized dealers, or a service agency approved by HUSQVARNA.
ITEMS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY:
The repair or replacement of any warranted part otherwise eligible for warranty coverage may be excluded from such
warranty coverage if HUSQVARNA demonstrates that the engine or equipment has been abused, neglected, or
improperly maintained, and that such abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance was the direct cause of the need for
