Tires and Wheel Nuts
Inspect tires for wear or damage. Check and inflate tires to
correct pressure:
12.00 x 16.5 ...........40 - 45 PSI (276 - 310 kPa)
Tires can be inflated to 50 PSI (345 kPa) when operating
on hard, flat surfaces.
To prevent shearing of the wheel studs and rim damage
check wheel nuts for proper torque 100 -110 lbs. ft. (136 -
149 Nm) daily (Fig. 4.3C). After changing a rim, Check
wheel nuts hourly, until the reading stabilizes.
4.
Track System
Inspect track system. Remove debris and any items
imbedded in the track. Check sprocket hub nut torque
(100-110 lbs.ft. (136-149 Nm). Inspect Scrapers (See
Fig.4.3D).
5.
Safety Equipment
Check all safety equipment for proper operation and
condition - seat belt, lift arm supports, seat bar, parking
brake, quick tach lock, shields, safety treads and control
locks. Lubricate all linkages, springs and pivot points
with a silicone based lubricant. Repair or replace if
necessary.
6. Decals
Check the condition of all safety and instruction decals.
Replace any damaged or missing decals. Refer to Section
5.3 for decal description and locations.
7. Lubrication (Wheel Loader)
There are sixteen (16) grease fittings located on the wheel
loader that require lubrication every eight hours.
Lubricate with a good quality multi-purpose lithium based
grease. Apply grease until excess shows. Refer to the
service schedule for complete service details. (See Fig.
4.3E). The sixteen (16) lubrication points are:
Rear Lift Arm Pivots (2)
Lift Cylinder Bushings (4)
Bucket Cylinder Bushings (4)
Lift Arm Supports (2)
Quick Tach Pivot and Lock Pins (4)
