Case Drain Filter
The PT machines are also equipped with a filter in the
auxiliary circuit case drain line (A). It protects the main
hydraulic system in the event of catastrophic failure in
an attachment. This filter is designed to last the life of
the vehicle. The only instance where this filter should
be replaced is if an attachment equipped with a case
drain has a drive motor failure during use.

Fuse Panel
The electrical systems in the PT machines are
equipped with fuses that protect the electrical
components from damage. They are found in the fuse
panel enclosure which is located behind the panel
cover in the right, rear corner of the interior of the cab
behind the operator seat.
In the event of an electrical malfunction, the most
logical place to start is at the fuse panel. Check the
fuse related to the problem you are having and inspect
it. If the fuse appears black and burned, it needs to be
replaced. Replace fuses with the correct amperage
replacement fuse only. Replacing a fuse with one of a
lower amperage rating may lead to premature fuse
failure. Replacing a fuse with one of a higher
amperage rating may burn out the electrical
component the fuse was meant to protect. See the
troubleshooting section in this manual for an additional
resource to aid in tracking suspected electrical
problems.
