Operating Instructions
5. Look overhead at bottom of cab and check for
leakage of the steering control valve, brake valves,
and/or hoses.
6. Move outboard of the front wheel, and inspect
attaching lugs/wedges to be sure all are tight and
complete. Check tires for cuts, damage or "bub-
bles" and that inflation appears to be correct.
7. Move behind the rear of the front wheel, inspect for
leaks at hub or brakes or any unusual conditions.
Inspect suspension hardware to be sure it is all in
place. Inspect the tie-rod and steering cylinder for
proper greasing, and for security of all parts.
Inspect for any hydraulic leaks.
8. Inspect sight glass for transmission oil level. With
engine stopped, hydraulic fluid should be visible
about half way up in the glass. Also check the
transmission filter for leaks.
9. Move to the side of the hydraulic tank and check
the hydraulic fluid level in the hydraulic tank. Oil
should be visible in sight glass with engine
stopped and body down.
10. Move on around the hydraulic tank and in front of
the rear dual tires, inspect the hoist cylinder for
any damage and leaks. Inspect both upper and
lower hoist cylinder pins for security, and for
proper greasing.
11. Before leaving this position, look to see that there
is no leakage or any other unusual condition with
transmission, drive shaft, or parking brake.
12. Move on around the dual tires, check to see that
all lugs/wedges are in place and tight. Inspect
wheel for any leakage that may be coming from
inside the wheel housing that would indicate
planetary leakage.
Check dual tires for cuts, damage or "bubbles"
and that inflation appears to be correct. If truck
has been run on a "flat", the tire must be cooled
before parking truck inside. Inspect for any
rocks that might be lodged between dual tires,
and that rock ejector is in good condition and
straight so that it can not damage a tire.
13. Inspect left rear suspension for damage and for
proper inflation, and that there are no leaks.
Inspect also for proper greasing, and that the
covers over the chromed piston rod are in good
condition.
14. Check final drive housing breather. Clean or re-
place breather, if obstructed. Check for leakage
around final drive housing and wet disc brake
housings and the hoses connected to the hous-
ings.
15. While standing behind final drive housing, look up
to see that rear lights are in good condition, along
with back up horn. Inspect anti-sway bar to see
that it is getting proper greasing. Also look at both
body hinge pins for greasing and any abnormal
condition.
16. Perform the same inspection on the right rear
suspension as done on the left.
17. Move on around the right dual tires, inspect be-
tween the tires for rocks, and for condition of the
rock ejector, inspect the tires for cuts or damage,
and for correct inflation.
18. Perform the same inspection for wheel
lugs/wedges, wheel cover latches, and for leaks
that was done on the left hand dual wheels.
19. Move in front of right dual tires, and inspect the
hoist cylinder the same as was done on the left
side.
Inspect the final drive anchor pivot area for evi-
dence of proper greasing of the bearing and any
evidence of wear or looseness in the pin or bear-
ing.
20. Move on around the fuel tank, inspect the fuel
breather. Inspect the attaching hardware for the
fuel tank at the upper saddles, and then at the
lower back of the tank for the security and condi-
tion of the mounts.
On the inside of the frame rail, check the hoist
control valve and auxiliary manifold for leakage
and security.
Check pumps on the right front of transmission
for leakage, and that all parts are secure.
21. Move in behind the right front wheel, and inspect
the tie-rod and steering cylinder for proper greas-
ing, and for security of all parts. Be sure the
suspension protective cover is in good condition.
Check suspension attaching hardware and sus-
pension extension, as well as greasing and attach-
ing hardware for the steering cylinder.
22. Move out and around the right front wheel, inspect
that all lugs/wedges are in place and tight.
23. Move in behind the front of the right front wheel,
check hub and brakes for leaks and any unusual
condition. Inspect the engine compartment for
any leaks and unusual condition. Inspect the fan
guard, and belts also for any rags or debris behind
radiator.
24. Move on around to the right front of the truck.
