Foreword
Literature Information
This manual should be stored in the operators compartment in the literature holder or seat back storage area.
This manual contains safety, operation, transportation, lubrication and maintenance information.
Some photographs or illustrations in this publication show details or attachments that may be different from your machine. Guards and covers may have been removed for illustrative purposes.
Continuing improvement and advancement of product design may have caused changes to your machine which are not included in this publication. Read - study - and keep this manual with the machine.
Whenever a question arises regarding your machine, or this publication, please consult your Caterpillar dealer for the latest available information.
Safety
The safety section lists basic safety precautions. In addition, this section identifies the text and locations of warning 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 product.
Operation
The operation section is a reference for the new operator and a refresher for the experienced one. This section includes a discussion of gauges, switches, machine controls, attachment controls, transportation and towing information.
Illustrations guide the operator through correct procedures for 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 illustrated, step-by-step instructions are grouped by servicing interval. Items without specific intervals are listed under "When Required" topics. Items in the "Maintenance Intervals" chart are referenced to detailed instructions that follow.
Maintenance Intervals
Use the service hour meter to determine servicing intervals. Calendar intervals shown (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) may 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 servicing than is specified in the "Maintenance Interval" chart may 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", "Every 50 Service Hours or Weekly" and "Every 10 Service Hours or Daily".
Machine Description
