Wiring Harnesses
Figure 7.5 - Wiring Harnesses
Inspect all the wiring harnesses, on the machine,
for loose connections, broken wires, and frayed in-
sulation.
Battery Terminals
Figure 7.6 - Battery Terminals
Battery terminals should be tight, clean and free of
dirt and corrosion.
Battery Fluid Level
DANGER
Batteries emit hydrogen and oxygen,
elements that can combine explosively.
DO NOT smoke or permit open flames or
sparks when checking batteries.
MHP15J – 11995A
Chapter 7. Pre-operational Inspection
Figure 7.7 - Battery Fluid Level
Remove the caps from the battery and visually
check to see that the battery fluid is 1/4" (6 mm) be-
low the bottom of the filler neck inside each hole.
Hydraulic Oil Level
To check the hydraulic oil level:
Completely lower the booms and ensure the stabi-
lisers are in the stowed position.
Figure 7.8 - Hydraulic Oil Level
The hydraulic oil level should be between the two
marks on the dipstick.
If necessary, add hydraulic oil at the filler cap. See
the "Specifications" chapter 3, for type and grade of
hydraulic oil.
Hydraulic Oil Leaks
DANGER
Leaking hydraulic oil can cause burns, fires,
falls (slipping), cuts, and puncture wounds
(if under high pressure).Do not search for
leaks with your hand. Have a qualified
trained maintenance person repair all
hydraulic fluid leaks before you operate an
MHP15J.
