SERVICE
Before servicing the machine, unless
expressly instructed to the contrary, exercise
the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE (page 6).
After service has been performed, be sure to restore all guards,
shields and covers to their original positions before resuming
operation.
This Service chapter details procedures for performing routine maintenance
checks, adjustments and replacements. Most procedures are referred to in the
Troubleshooting and Maintenance chapters of this manual. Refer to the Mainte-
nance Interval Chart (page 81) for service intervals. Refer to the separate engine
manual for engine-related adjustments, lubrication and service procedures.
Note: All service procedures, except those described under the Dealer Services
topic are owner-operator responsibilities.
Important: Always dispose of waste lubricating oils and hydraulic fluids
according to local regulations or take to a recycling center for disposal. Do not
pour onto the ground or down the drain.
