Introduction
Make the machine safe before you start a
maintenance procedure. Refer to (PIL 01-03).
You can complete most of the maintenance
procedures with the lift arm lowered. Unless a
maintenance procedure instructs you differently, you
must lower the lift arm.
If you raise the lift arm to get access for maintenance,
you must install the maintenance strut on the lift arm.
Refer to (PIL 06-69).
Release the hydraulic pressure. Refer to (PIL 30-00).
Lift Arm Lowered
1. Park the machine on level, solid ground. Refer to
(PIL 01-03).
2. Retract and lower the lift arm.
3. Put the attachment flat on the ground.
4. Stop the engine and remove the ignition key. If
the keyless ignition option is installed stop the
engine and wait
Duration: 15s
5. Disconnect the battery to prevent accidental
operation of the engine. Refer to (PIL 33-03).
6. If necessary, put blocks against the two sides of
the wheels before you get below the machine.
Lift Arm Raised
1. Park the machine on level, solid ground. Refer to
(PIL 01-03).
2. Remove any loads and attachments.
3. Deploy stabiliser legs if possible (if installed).
4. Raise and retract the lift arm and install the

damage to the strut. Stop as soon as the
weight of the lift arm is on the strut.
5. Stop the engine and remove the ignition key. If
the keyless ignition option is installed stop the
engine and wait
