Safety when servicing Service position Service position NOTE! Before beginning any service work, the following measures must first be taken. 1 Position the machine on even, firm and level ground. 2 Put the attachment on the ground. Put the dozer blade on the ground if equipped. 3 Turn off the engine.
Page 273: Before Service, Read
Safety when servicing Before service, read Before 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 274 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. Make sure that no tools or other objects, which may cause damage, have been forgotten in or on the machine.
Page 275 Safety when servicing Before service, read Preventing 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.
Page 276 Safety when servicing Before service, read Battery disconnect switch NOTICE Do not turn off the battery disconnect switch when the engine is running. The electrical system may be damaged. Battery disconnect switch (C) is located inside the left side door of the machine. When welding, servicing of electrical system or after finishing work of the day for safety, the battery disconnect switch should be turned off.

Safety when servicing Fire prevention Fire prevention NOTE! Using the machine in environments with high risk of fire or explosion requires special training and equipment. There is always a risk of fire. Find out what kind of fire extinguisher is used on your working site and how to use it.
Page 281 Safety when servicing Fire prevention Keep the place clean where the service is to be carried out. Oil and water can make the floor slippery and is also dangerous in connection with electrical equipment or electrically powered tools. Oily and greasy clothes are a serious fire hazard. Check daily that the machine and the equipment, for example underbelly plates are free from dust and oil.
Page 282 Safety when servicing Fire prevention Actions in case of fire If the circumstances permit and your own safety is not jeopardised, take the following steps at the slightest sign of fire: 1 Stop the machine, if the machine is in motion. 2 Lower attachments to the ground.

Page 334 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Cleaning machine The machine should be cleaned regularly with conventional car care products in order to eliminate the risk of damage to the paint finish and other surfaces on the machine. NOTICE Avoid using strong cleaning agents or chemicals in order to minimise the risk of damage to the paint finish.
Page 335 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required NOTE! Protect electrical leads in an appropriate way and be careful not to damage the cab prefilter when cleaning the machine. NOTICE Do not spray with high pressure into the sealing of the slewing ring, the water may penetrate and affect the characteristics of the grease.
Page 336 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Cleaning engine compartment WARNING Risk of serious injury. Rotating parts could cause serious cutting or crushing injury. Never open the engine hood when the engine is running. WARNING Risk of burns. Engine and exhaust system components get very hot and can cause severe burns.
Page 337 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Engine air cleaner The air cleaner prevents dust and other impurities from entering the engine. The air first passes through the primary filter and then the secondary filter. The degree of engine wear depends largely on the cleanliness of the induction air.
Page 338 Do not clean the filter if the check screen does not pop up on the IC (Instrument Cluster). NOTE! Use Volvo genuine air filters. Otherwise Volvo may not support the engine failures. If the indicator is still alight after replacing or cleaning the primary filter, the secondary filter must be replaced.
Page 339 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Mechanical cleaning 1 Open the left side door of the machine. 2 Pull finger (E) and turn cover (B) counterclockwise to open it. 3 Press with both thumbs on primary filter (C) at the same time as you pull it out. This is to prevent the secondary filter (D) from coming out together with the primary filter.
Page 340 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Engine air cleaner secondary filter, replacing Replace the secondary filter every 3rd time primary filter is replaced or at least every 2 years. If the indicator is still alight even though the primary filter has been cleaned or replaced, the secondary filter should be replaced.
Page 341 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Engine air cleaner cover, cleaning The cover for aircleaner should be cleaned when the primary filter is cleaned. WARNING Risk of hazardous inhalation. V1106767 Dangerous dust can lead to serious health A Vacuator valve B Cover problems.
Page 342 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Track unit, adjusting tension WARNING Risk of serious injury Recoil spring cylinder is filled with pressurised grease.

Always keep face, hands and body away from the grease nipple and valve when adjusting the track tension or loosening the track.
Page 343 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required Bucket teeth, replacing Replace the bucket teeth before the adaptors wear away. WARNING Risk of splinter injury. When striking metal objects with a hammer, flying V1066076 metal chips could cause serious splinter injury to eyes and other body parts. Always wear personal protective equipment and eye protection when replacing bucket teeth.
Page 344 Maintenance Maintenance service, when required For Volvo tooth system I (VTS) Replace the bucket teeth before the adaptors wear away. WARNING Risk of splinter injury. Striking the bucket pin with a hammer could cause metal chips to fly around and cause serious splinter injury.
