Safety
The safety section lists basic safety precautions. In addition, this section identifies the text and locations of warning signs and labels used on the machine.
Read and understand the basic precautions listed in the safety section before operating or performing lubrication, maintenance and repair on this machine.
Operation
The operation section is a reference for the new operator and a refresher for the experienced operator. This section includes a discussion of gauges, switches, machine controls, attachment controls, transportation and towing information.
Photographs and illustrations guide the operator through correct procedures of checking, starting, operating and stopping the machine.
Operating techniques outlined in this publication are basic. Skill and techniques develop as the operator gains knowledge of the machine and its capabilities.
Maintenance
The maintenance section is a guide to equipment care. The Maintenance Interval Schedule (MIS) lists the items to be maintained at a specific service interval. Items without specific intervals are listed under the "When Required" service interval. The Maintenance Interval Schedule lists the page number for the step-by-step instructions required to accomplish the scheduled maintenance. Use the Maintenance Interval Schedule as an index or "one safe source" for all maintenance procedures.
Maintenance Intervals
Use the service hour meter to determine servicing intervals. Calendar intervals shown (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) can be used instead of service hour meter intervals if they provide more convenient servicing schedules and approximate the indicated service hour meter reading. Recommended service should always be performed at the interval that occurs first.
Under extremely severe, dusty or wet operating conditions, more frequent lubrication than is specified in the maintenance intervals chart might be necessary.
Perform service on items at multiples of the original requirement. For example, at every 500 service hours or 3 months, also service those items listed under every 250 service hours or monthly and every 10 service hours or daily.
California Proposition 65 Warning
Diesel engine exhaust and some of its constituents are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
Certified Engine Maintenance
Proper maintenance and repair is essential to keep the engine and machine systems operating correctly. As the heavy duty off-road diesel engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in the Owner Manual, Operation and Maintenance Manual, and Service Manual.

• Park the machine on a hard, dry, level surface.
• Check the area around the machine. Make sure that the machine is clear of personnel and clear of obstacles.
• Make sure that the steering frame lock is in the unlocked position.
• Fasten the seat belt before you test the brakes.
The following tests are used to determine whether the braking system is functional. These tests are not intended to measure the maximum brake holding effort. The required brake holding effort for sustaining a machine at a specific engine rpm varies from one machine to another machine. The variations include differences in the engine setting, the power train efficiency, the brake holding ability, etc.
Service Brake Holding Ability Test
Personal injury can result if the machine moves while testing.
If the machine begins to move during test, reduce the engine speed immediately and engage the parking brake.
1. Start the engine. Raise the implement slightly. Apply the service brake. Release the parking brake.
2. Move the transmission control to SECOND SPEED FORWARD while the service brakes are applied.
3. Gradually increase the engine speed to high idle. The machine should not move.
4. Reduce the engine speed to low idle. Move the transmission direction control to the NEUTRAL position. Engage the parking brake. Lower the implement to the ground. Stop the engine.
If the machine moved during the test, consult your Caterpillar dealer for a brake inspection. Make any necessary repairs before the machine is returned to operation.
