Section 3 – Pre-Start Inspection and Operation

IMPROPER USE OF THE COMPACT UTILITY LOADER COULD CAUSE SERIOUS 
INJURY OR DEATH. BEFORE OPERATING THE WHEEL LOADER, OR 
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE, THE OPERATOR MUST READ AND 
UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE OPERATOR'S MANUAL, REVIEW MACHINE 
CONTROLS, LOCATE AND REVIEW ALL WARNINGS AND SAFETY PLACARDS 
AND RELEVANT OPERATOR SAFETY MATERIALS INCLUDING WRITTEN, 
VISUAL, VIDEO OR VERBAL INSTRUCTIONS.

Pre-Start Inspection

It is very important to do a visual inspection of the machine before beginning operation.  This 
inspection should include:

• Check all decals and warning signs for damage.
• Check engine oil.
• Check and refill gas tanks.
• Check hydraulic lines and hoses for signs of damage or leaks.
• Inspect the machine for any signs of damage or loose fasteners.
• Check fluid levels and any signs of leaking fluids.
• Do all Daily Service Checks.
• Check machine controls to make sure that they automatically return to the neutral position.

NOTE: 

The following procedures have several additional service checks and adjustments that 

will need to be followed if your machine is equipped with a track drive system. 

The following information presents details on these inspection points and service checks.
