A-1 Visual inspection
To ensure the maximum useful operating life
of the vehicle, proceed with a thorough visual
inspection before every starting up.
1 Look around and under the vehicle,
checking to make sure there are no slack
or missing bolts, no accumulated dirt,
leakage of oil, fuel and other liquids,
broken or worn parts.
2 Check the state of the accessories and
hydraulic components.
3 Check the state and wear of the tyres. If
necessary
4 Check the oil, coolant and fluid levels.
5 Check the AdBlue® tank level (if present).
6 Remove all accumulated dirt and debris.
Carry out all the repairs necessary before
starting up the vehicle.
During operations on the lubricant oil system,
ensure utmost cleanliness. Thoroughly clean
the area around the components concerned
from time to time.
Dry the damp parts with air jets. For handling
lubricant oils follow the safety directives and
specific local standards.
Dispose of the leaked lubricant oil and the filter
elements. Do not let the used lubricant oil
spread in the ground. Run a test cycle after
every intervention. At the same time, ensure
sealing and pressure of the lubricant oil and
then check its level.
An insufficient and/or excessive lubricant oil
level can damage the engine. Check the oil
level only with the engine horizontal and
stopped. Check the lubricant oil level only
while it is warm, 5 minutes after the engine is
switched off. Do not remove the oil level rod
with the engine running. Danger of burns.
1 Remove the rod and wipe it clean with a
cloth, do not leave fibres. Insert the oil rod
up to the stop then remove it and read the
lubricant oil level.
2 The level must be between the MIN and
MAX level! Top up to the MAX notch if
