AFTER DAILY OPERATION
NOTE:
For machines on muddy job sites, it is recommended that the operator clean the mud from the tracks
and rollers after each shift. After each shift, it is recommended that the operator drain the water from
the water separator.
Mud and water accumulation on the undercarriage can affect normal operation of the machine. Make sure to
perform the following actions after daily operation:
•
Remove mud and water from the machine. Mud, dirt, and water can damage the seals.
•
Park the machine on a firm, dry surface. If possible, park the machine on boards, which can prevent the
tracks from sinking into soft ground. Normal operation can fail if the machine becomes stuck.
•
Open the drain valve of the fuel water separator daily and discharge the water in the fuel system.
After operating the machine in water or mud, perform the following procedures to drain water from the
undercarriage to extend its service life:
•
Run the engine at low speed and swing the upper structure 90° so the work equipment is sideways.
•
Raise the machine so that one side of the tracks is off the ground. Rotate the track back and forth to shake
the mud off. Repeat this procedure on the other track.
WARNING!
Rotating tracks are dangerous. Stay away from rotating tracks. Failure to follow this warning
could result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE!
Fill the fuel tank to its maximum level after operation to prevent moisture in the fuel tank from
condensing at low temperatures, which could result in fuel-line freeze.
