Checking the V-belt
•
Check the V-belt (1) for cracks and proper tension. It should
be possible to depress the V-belt for about 10 mm. Tighten
the V-belt (page 97).
Checking the exhaust system for leaks
•
Check the exhaust system for leaks and security (formation of cracks).
If the inspection is carried out when the engine is warm, there is a risk of burns at the exhaust
system.
•
If the exhaust system is leaky or loose, the excavator may only be taken into operation after the defects
are eliminated.
Checking the oil level of the hydraulic system
To determine the oil level exactly, extend all hy-
draulic cylinders half way.
