Warning: The liquid ballast in tires is an irritant. Protect the eyes and face from the spray that comes out of the valve stem when checking the ballast level in the tires or when checking the tires air pressure.

Failure to protect the eyes and face could result in personal injury.

When you check the tire pressure, move the machine so that the valve stem for the tire is in the twelve o'clock position in order to prevent the liquid ballast from spraying out of the valve stem.

Note: There will be a slight amount of liquid ballast in the valve stem after moving the machine into position. Depress the valve stem in order to allow the liquid ballast to be blown out of the valve stem before attaching the pressure gauge.

Enter the current tire pressure

Enter the adjusted tire pressure

Did the tire pressure adjust to the desired level?

NOTICE: Always use a designated pump for oil sampling, and use a separate designated pump for coolant sampling. Using the same pump for both types of samples may contaminate the samples that are being drawn. This contaminate may cause a false analysis and an incorrect interpretation that could lead to concerns by both dealers and customers.

Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Access Doors and Covers” for the location of the service points.

Obtain the sample of the coolant as close as possible to the recommended sampling interval. Supplies for collecting samples can be obtained from your Caterpillar dealer.

Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Cooling System Coolant Sample (Level 1) - Obtain” for the guidelines for proper sampling of the coolant.

Submit the sample for Level 2 analysis.

For additional information about coolant analysis, see Special Publication, SEBU6250, “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” or consult your Caterpillar dealer.
