CLEAN RADIATOR & OIL COOLER FINS
AWARNING
Do NOT remove the Radiator Cap when the
Engine is HOT or overheated. Coolant is
extremely HOT and under pressure and it
can burn your skin. Wait for the Engine to
cool down BEFORE relieving the pressure
and removing the Radiator Cap. Also, Do
NOT
reach
into
the
area
between
the
Radiator and Oil Cooler with the Engine
running. The Fan Blade is exposed and
touching it could cause serious injury.
ACAUTION
Allow sufficient
time
for the Radiator and
Hydraulic
Oil
Cooler
to
cool
BEFORE
attempting
to
work
around
either
item.
Parts get
extremely
HOT during operation
and can burn you.
The
Radiator
and the Oil
Cooler
assemblies are
mounted between the Engine and the Hinged Rear
Grill. When functioning properly, air is blown through
the openings between the coils and fins by the Engine
Fan. Over a period
of
normal operation, dust and debris
will build-up on the Engine side
of
the Radiator and
Oil Cooler and restrict air flow through the fins.
To
reduce or remove this restriction, use a hose and direct
the water flow through the fins from the rear
of
the
Radiator.
CHECK ENGINE
OIL
LEVEL
(Fig.
36)
Open the Engine Access Cover. Pull out the dipstick
and check the oil level. Markings on the dipstick
represent both full and low (add oil) levels. Refer to
the "Changing Engine Oil
& Filter" subtopic under the
"Service Every 1 00 Hours" topic in this chapter for the
proper location and procedures for adding Engine oil.
Also, refer to the Lubrication Chapter and/or the
separate
Engine
manual
for
oil
viscosity
and
requirements information.

The Loader is provided with a Visual Hydraulic Oil
Level Indicator which is located on the Chassis Right
Riser.
Refer
to
the

recommendations and to the "Hydraulic Reservoir
Oil" subtopic, under the 500 hour (or one Year) topic,
for draining and replacement information.
LUBRICATE LIFT ARM, QUICK-TACH
& CYLINDER PIVOTS
Lubricate both Lift Arm Pivots, and both Quick-Tach
Pivots. Lubricate the fittings on both ends
of
all four
Cylinders. Refer to details in the Lubrication chapter.
CHECK SEAT AND RESTRAINT BAR
OPERATION
Electrical Switches in the Seat and Restraint Bar
MUST be closed (operator sitting on the Seat and the
Restraint Bar lowered) to complete the starter circuit
for starting the Loader Engine.
CHECK
BUCKET
