Page 251: Before Service, Read
efore service, read Preventing personal injury Read the Operator's Manual before the service work is started. It is also important to read and follow information and instructions on plates and decals. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery, which can get caught and cause injury.
Page 252 When lifting or supporting the machine or parts of the machine, use equipment with a sufficient lifting capacity. Lifting devices, tools, working methods, lubricants and parts prescribed in the Operator's Manual should be used. Volvo Construction Equipment will not accept any responsibility otherwise.
Page 253 reventing environmental influence Be conscious of the environment when carrying out service and maintenance. Oil and other liquids dangerous to the environment and released into the environment will cause damage. Oil degrades very slowly in water and sediment. One litre of oil can destroy millions of litres of drinking water.

Battery disconnect switch (C) is located inside the cab. When welding, servicing of electrical system or after finishing work of the day for safety, the battery disconnect switch should be turned off.
Page 255 For any work on the hydraulic system and on pressure-limiting valves the values and tolerances from the Volvo service manual must be applied, otherwise the guarantee from the manufacturer will be void.
Page 256 1 When changing from a mineral oil to a bio oil, the oil must be drained as much as possible and it is required to flush the hydraulic system. 2 For the drain points and changing method, please contact the workshop authorized by Volvo Construction Equipment.

Page 327 e ser ecommended intervals for critical parts To ensure safety at all times when operating or driving the machine, periodic maintenance must always be carried out. To maintain safety over time, it is also recommended that periodic check or replacement of the parts given in the table below, is carried out.
Page 328 e ser aintenance under special environmen conditions Conditions Maintenance Before operating, check the tightness of plugs and all drain hoses and cocks. After working, replenish the grease to the attachment pins or the areas affected by the water. When operating the machine, make sure to check and lubricate attachment points Water or near the ocean affected by water regularly.

Other mineral oils can be used if they conform to our viscosity recommendations and meet our quality requirements. The approval of Volvo is required, if any other oil base quality (e.g. biologically degradable oil) is to be used. It is very important that instructions for oil grade are followed, otherwise deposits from the oil may clog the particle filter (DPF).
Page 330 Biodegradable a) If the machine is filled with Volvo Biodegradable Hydraulic oil this oil must also be used when filling and changing. The mineral oil content in bio oil should not exceed 2%. If changing from mineral oil to bio oil, contact a workshop authorised by Volvo CE.

Page 335 syste Unblended biodiesel is referred to as B100 because it is 100% biodiesel. Rapeseed methyl ester (RME) is the most common type of FAME used in Europe. Soy methyl ester (SME) and sunflower oil methyl ester (SOME) are the most common types of FAME used in the Although use of FAME biodiesel is now a legal requirement in some markets, it is not as suitable for use in diesel engines as conventional diesel fuel or HVO (hydro-treated vegetable oil).
