TRANSPORTING PRECAUTIONS
• Know the rules, laws, and safety equipment
necessary for transporting this machine on a road
or highway.
ROLL-OVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE
• Do NOT modify the ROPS in any manner.
Unauthorized modifications such as welding,
drilling, cutting, or adding attachments can weaken
the structure and reduce your protection. Replace
ROPS if it is subjected to roll-over or damage. Do
not attempt to repair.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
It is recommended that you have a fire extinguisher
on your machine. Contact your Dealer for the type
and location of a fire extinguisher on this machine.
SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS

The seat belt is an important part of the ROPS
operator protection system. Always use the seat belt
and check the seat belt and hardware on a routine
basis to confirm that bolts are torqued properly and
that the belt system is not damaged from wear or
abrasion.
2-10
SPECIFIC PRECAUTIONS TO THIS MACHINE TO FASTEN THE SEAT BELT

• Since the tracks are used as steps, always clear
the tracks of debris, rocks, ice, moisture or any
other item that might cause a fall, before entering
or leaving the cab, for operation or service.
• Welding in certain areas of the crawler may
require the controller be disconnected and
grounded. Contact your Dealer before you weld.
• Lower the blade and attachments to the ground
before leaving the machine.

Pushing the pedal all the way down will engage
the parking brake. The Park Brake indicator on
the cluster will illuminate. Releasing the pedal
will release the brake.
2. DECELERATOR PEDAL
Push this pedal down to reduce the machine
speed. This command can reduce the speed all
the way to zero by destroking the drive pumps
along with decreasing engine RPM.
NOTE: A good way to control the dozer for precision
work is to use the decelerator like the brake pedal on
a car with an automatic transmission.

Speed
Unnecessary speed directly affects the wear rate on
pins, bushings and sprockets. The faster the speed,
the faster the wear rate. High speed reverse
accelerates bushing and sprocket wear. Reverse
speeds are faster than forward speeds. Wear rate is
a function of speed and distance traveled, not just
hours worked.
Impact
High speed will increase impact loading when there
is low grouser penetration on hard surfaces or when
working in rock.
Impact can cause structural problems such as
bending, cracking or breakage of components. This
can also affect pin and bushing retention and bushing
cracking. And, if a chain is worn, can cause fractures.
Turning
Wear rate increases with increased turning. Turning
increases interference loads between moving
components. Turning in reverse accelerates bushing
and sprocket wear due to increased loads transferred
from the rotation of the bushings against the sprocket
in reverse.

TRACKS
Clean the tracks and undercarriage as required or at
the end of the work shift. Park the machine on a level
surface to prevent distortion of the track seals. If the
temperature is cold, park the machine on a surface
that will not freeze to the track shoes.
Check the track tension frequently when you operate.
Check the track tension more often when working in
extreme conditions. When material packs and
collects on the undercarriage parts the tracks may
become too tight.
Correct track adjustment is the most important
factor that helps to control undercarriage wear. The BD06E024-01 Figure 3

CLEANING THE BATTERIES

Check the batteries and batter y compar tment
regularly for dirt, corrosion and damage. Dirt mixed
with electrolyte or moisture on the top of the batteries
can cause a discharged condition in the batteries.
Use one of the following methods to clean the
batteries.
• Use Case Battery Saver and follow the
instructions on the container. This cleaner does
not need water.
• Use baking soda or ammonia and flush the
