vacuator valves daily. Inspect and remove any obstructions from the vacuator valve lips which should be open
and pliable with the engine stopped.
NOTICE: Service air cleaners more often when operating under extremely dusty conditions.
Engine Crankcase - Check oil level and add if low. A cold level check should always be done prior to starting
the vehicle. To ensure that sufficient oil is in the system to allow the unit to be run to operating temp to perform
a hot level check.
Transmission - Check oil level and add oil if low.
Hydraulic Tank - Check oil level and add oil if low.
Brake Coolant Tank - Check the oil level and add if low.

centration is low, engine damage will result. Conversely, over-inhibiting antifreeze solutions can result in silicate
dropout.
