REPLACING DRIVE TRAIN PRESSURE FILTER

SERVICING THE DRIVE TRAIN SUCTION STRAINER

Sign off on the bulldozer maintenance

The engine is equipped with an automatic belt tensioner that maintains correct tension on the drive belt. To check belt tension a Burroughs type gauge must be used because of the wide drive belt. Proper tension should be 110 to 150 N (80 to 110 lbs).

If a Burroughs type gauge is not available, tension may be checked by belt deflection. Press the belt with your finger at the longest span and measure the deflection. Maximum deflection 9.5 to 12.7mm (0.37 to 0.50 in).

With the automatic tensioner, adjustment isn't required.

To replace the drive belt, place a 12 in. drive breaker bar (1) in the square hole in the belt tensioner. Push the breaker bar UP to loosen the tensioner. Remove the old belt (2). Inspect belt tensioner. The tensioner pulley should spin freely with no rough spots detected under hand pressure. Install the new belt.

24.4.1 CHECK OIL LEVEL IN DRIVE TRAIN

1. Open the right side door at the hydraulic reservoir.

2. Unscrew the T handle of the oil level gauge, remove the gauge and wipe it clean.

3. Insert the gauge fully into the filler sleeve. Do not tighten. Remove the gauge and check the lubricant level. If necessary, add oil through the filler to bring the level up the FULL mark on the gauge. Reinstall and secure the gauge.

For details of the oil to use, see 20. USE OF FUEL, COOLANT AND LUBRICANTS ACCORDING TO AMBIENT TEMPERATURE.

4. Lift up on lock lever and close door.

24.4.2.1 RIPPER LINKAGE (12 POINTS)

Check the coolant level in radiator sight glass to make sure coolant is present.

If coolant must be added, remove radiator cap by turning it to the left or counterclockwise up to the safety stop until all pressure is released. Press down on the cap and continue to turn until the cap is free to be removed.

Add fluid until visible in sight glass.

CHECK ENGINE CRANKCASE OIL LEVEL

Stop the engine and check level. For an accurate reading wait for the oil to drain into the crankcase pan. Open hood access door. Remove the oil level gauge (1) and wipe it clean. Reinsert the gauge completely. Remove the gauge and check the oil level. If the level is at or below the ADD mark, add oil through the filler opening (2) to bring the level up to the FULL mark on the gauge.

CHECK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM HYDRAULIC OIL LEVEL

With the oil at operating or ambient temperature, park the machine on level ground, lower the blade to the ground, release the control lever and stop the engine.

Check oil level at sight gauge on the side of the reservoir. Add oil if level is below the center line of the gauge.
