Introduction
Inspections are the most basic form of condition monitoring. Inspections are easy to do and
surprisingly effective at helping you spot equipment health issues. Proactive monitoring and
analysis of equipment information will allow Dealers to effectively intervene before problems
occur.
Note: Before adjusting product settings to comply with listed baseline TA1 values, consult SIS for
the latest specification values.

Check for:
• Oil leaks indicated by dirt or oil buildup around the cylinder lip seal
• Damage or wear to linkage pins (refer to "Pin Inspection Guidelines" for inspection
procedure)
• Make sure no one is underneath the machine, around the machine, or on the machine. Be
sure that the area is free of personnel.
• Walk around the machine and inspect underneath the machine for visible signs of fluid
leaks.
• Check the engine oil, hoist/converter/brake oil, transmission oil, steering oil, and coolant
levels. If necessary, add oil or coolant to reach minimum level for each system.
• Move the parking brake control to the ENGAGED position. Move the transmission control
to the NEUTRAL position.
• Turn the key start switch to the OFF position, remove the key, also remove the battery
disconnect key, and tag the machine out for safety.
• Apply wheel chocks and install the steering frame lock before carrying out maintenance in
the area of the oscillating hitch.
