Before removing the Fill Plug, release pressure in the
hydraulic system by allowing pressure to bleed-off
when loosening the Fill Plug. This can also be done by
loosening the Breather Cap on top of the Backwall
Console.
NOTE:
Be careful when removing the Reservoir
Filler Cap so that NO dirt or other foreign matter
enters the hydraulic system while the Cap is
removed. Do NOT OVERFILL.
See the Lubricants Chapter of this manual for recom-
mended hydraulic oils.
CHECK CRANKCASE BREATHER CAP
Refer to OEM Engine Manual for cleaning procedure.
CHECK BATTERY FLUID & CABLES
Check Cables for corrosion or loose connection. Check
to see if fluid level is full in each cell.
NOTE:
The Battery on the Paver is warranted by
the supplier. See the punch tag on the top of the
Battery for warranty information.
Handling Battery Safely
The top of the Battery MUST always be kept clean.
Clean the Battery with a brush dipped in an alkaline
solution (ammonia or baking soda and water). After the
foaming has stopped, flush the top of the Battery with
clean water. If the terminals and Cable connection
clamps are corroded or have a buildup, disconnect the
Cables and clean the terminals and clamps with the
same alkaline solution.
Jump Starting
If the Paver Battery becomes discharged or does NOT
have enough power to start the Engine, use jumper
cables and the following procedure to jump-start the
Paver Engine.
NOTE: BE SURE that the jumper battery is also a
12 volt D. C. Battery.
1. Turn the Keyswitches on both vehicles to OFF.
Make sure that both vehicles are in “Neutral” and
NOT touching.
2. Remove the Battery Filler Caps and make sure that
electrolyte solution is up to the proper level. In
addition, place a clean cloth over the uncapped
filler holes to prevent the electrolyte solution from
overflowing.
NOT have a separate safety element so extreme care
must be taken when cleaning or inspecting.
CHECK INSTRUMENTS OPERATION
Allow the Engine to warm up for about five minutes
before beginning operation. Indicator lamps should be
OFF and Gauges should register normal readings.
CHECK GENERAL MACHINE
OPERATION & CONDITION
Are any Decals missing or damaged? Are all Guards,
Shields and Covers in place? Do all controls function
smoothly and properly? Are there any abnormal vibra-
tions or noises? Are any hoses or fitting connections
leaking? Is the Engine exhaust color normal (light blue
or colorless)?
CHECK FAN BELT (1649)
If the Belt shows wear or cuts, it should be replaced.
Order replacement Belt from your Engine dealer. Refer
to the Engine manual relative to proper Belt replace-
ment and tension adjustment procedures.
LUBRICATE DAILY GREASE POINTS
Refer to the Fuels and Lubrication Chapter of this man-
ual for Daily Grease Fitting locations and other related
details.
NOTE:
The following service checks should be
done at the beginning of each working week and
in full conjunction with Dally Service.
CHECK HYDRAULIC OIL LEVEL
The fluid MUST be cool when checking the Reservoir
level, or changing the Filter. By doing this, you will
reduce the possiblity of overfilling the hydraulic sys-
tem, and also reduce potential injury due to hot fluid.
Weekly or 40 Hours
WARNING
ALWAYS protect face and eyes whenever a
pressure plug or cap is removed. NEVER
assume that no pressure exists in a pressure
vessel or system.
