Foreword

Literature Information

Publication Date -01/02/2015

Date Updated -14/08/2017

This manual should be stored in the operator's compartment in the literature holder or seat back literature storage area.

This manual contains safety information, operation instructions, transportation information, lubrication information and maintenance information.

Some photographs or illustrations in this publication show details or attachments that can be different from your machine. Guards and covers might have been removed for illustrative purposes.

Continuing improvement and advancement of product design might 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 Cat 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 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.

s00037320

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.

It is prohibited for any person engaged in the business of repairing, servicing, selling, leasing, or trading engines or machines to remove, alter, or render inoperative any emission related device or element of design installed on or in an engine or machine that is in compliance with the regulations (40 CFR Part 89). Certain elements of the machine and engine such as the exhaust system, fuel system, electrical system, intake air system and cooling system may be emission related and should not be altered unless approved by Caterpillar.

Machine Capacity

Additional attachments or modifications may exceed machine design capacity which can adversely affect performance characteristics. Included would be stability and system certifications such as brakes, steering, and rollover protective structures (ROPS). Contact your Cat dealer for further information.

Cat Product Identification Number

Effective First Quarter 2001 the Cat Product Identification Number (PIN) has changed from 8 to 17 characters. In an effort to provide uniform equipment identification, Caterpillar and other construction equipment manufacturers are moving to comply with the latest version of the product identification numbering standard. Non-road machine PINs are defined by ISO 10261. The new PIN format will apply to all Cat machines and generator sets. The PIN plates and frame marking will display the 17 character PIN. The new format will look like the following:

Illustration 1 g00751314

Where:

1. Caterpillar's World Manufacturing Code (characters 1-3)

2. Machine Descriptor (characters 4-8)

3. Check Character (character 9)

4. Machine Indicator Section (MIS) or Product Sequence Number (characters 10-17). These were previously referred to as the Serial Number.

Machines and generator sets produced before First Quarter 2001 will maintain their 8 character PIN format.

Components such as engines, transmissions, axles, etc. and work tools will continue to use an 8 character Serial Number (S/N).

Date Updated -14/08/2017

Check the area around the machine. Make sure that the machine is clear of personnel and clear of obstacles.

Test the brakes on a dry, level surface.

Fasten the seat belt before you test the brakes.

The following test is used to determine if the service brake is functional. This test is not intended to measure the maximum brake holding effort. The brake holding effort that is required to sustain a machine at a specific engine rpm varies depending on the machine. The variations are the differences in the engine setting, in the power train efficiency, and in the brake holding ability, etc.

1. Start the engine. Raise the bucket slightly.

2. Apply the service brake. Release the parking brake.

3. For machines with an autoshift transmission, move the transmission control lever to FOURTH SPEED FORWARD and place the autoshift control switch in manual mode. For machines with a manual transmission, move the transmission control lever to THIRD SPEED FORWARD.

4. Gradually increase the engine speed to high idle. The machine should not move.

If the machine begins to move, reduce the engine speed immediately and engage the parking brake.

Secondary Brake Holding Ability Test

Check the area around the machine. Make sure that the machine is clear of personnel and clear of obstacles.

Test the brakes on a dry, level surface.

Fasten the seat belt before you test the brakes.

The following tests are used to determine if the parking brake is functional. These tests are not intended to measure the maximum brake holding effort. The brake holding effort that is required to sustain a machine at a specific engine rpm varies depending on the machine. The variations are the differences in the engine setting, in the power train efficiency, and in the brake holding ability, etc.

1. Start the engine. Raise the bucket slightly.

2. Engage the parking brake.

3. With the parking brake applied, move the transmission control lever to the FORWARD position. With the parking brake applied, move the transmission control lever to the REVERSE position.

Note: The parking brake indicator light should come on and the parking brake alarm should sound if machine ground speed is above 6 km/h (3.7 mph) with the secondary brake still engaged.

Note: Your machine is equipped with a featured called park brake drive through. With the parking brake applied, move the transmission control lever to FORWARD then to NEUTRAL and back to FORWARD, then gradually increase engine speed and the machine will move. Parking brake drive through can also be done by moving the transmission control lever to REVERSE then to NEUTRAL and back to REVERSE, then gradually increase engine speed and the machine will move.

4. Gradually increase the engine speed to high idle. The machine should not move.

If the machine begins to move, reduce the engine speed immediately and apply the service brake pedal.

5. Reduce the engine speed. Move the transmission to NEUTRAL. Lower the bucket to the ground. Stop the engine.

NOTICE
