Serviceability

Re-engineered inspection and service points save time and expense.

Radiator Cleanout Access. Radiatorclean-out access gives the operator the ability to clear away debris and other materials that build up around the radiator. This ensures that the radiator functions properly keeping the engine cool and increasing component life. Service Center. Gathering many of thefrequently serviced items into a ‘Service Center’ on the left side greatly improves access, and helps ensure proper maintenance and inspection routines, The result is better machine availability and lower operating costs. •Large hinged doors provide easyaccess to the adjacent engine and maintenance service compartments. •Engine and hydraulic oil checkpoints,coolant gauges, and air filters •Spin-on filters for oils, fuel, coolant •Remote lubrication points, purgevalves and ecology drain lines •Fuse panel with new automotivestyle fuses located inside cab •Sample ports for engine, hydraulic,transmission fluids, coolant and fuel, encourages preventive maintenance and diagnostics like the S Cat XT Hose. O-Ring Face Seals. Caterpillar XT hosetechnology allows high pressures formaximum power and reduced downtime, and intelligent routing minimizes exposure to damage. Cat O-ring faceseals assure rock-solid connections that maintain pressure and reduce oil leaks. Intelligent hose routing minimizes exposure to damage, increasing hose life and enhancing reliability.

SM Extended Fluid Change Interval. analysis program. Fuel Tank. Operate a full 500 hours between engine oil and filter changes, 4,000hours between hydraulic oil changes, and 12,000 hours between engine coolant changes. This reduces downtime and operating expense. A 340 L (90 gal) groundlevel fuel tank allows longer work shifts and reduces refueling times. A fuel tank sediment drain enables the operator to remove sediment accumulation, reducing the risk of fuel system damage.
