3.2.2 Oscillation Auto Lock

DANGER Machine can tip over. When operating work equipment such as boom and guide shell, make sure the both tracks are put on the surface completely.

WARNING Oscillating cylinders can damage and machine travel stability can be affected. If both track frames do not oscillate during travel, stop travel immediately, and contact your nearest distributor for inspection maintenance.

Both oscillating cylinders work together through the hydraulic connecting circuit so when driving on uneven terrain, track on one side oscillates in forward direction and track on the other side oscillates in reverse direction and vice versa to keep machine moving balance. The oscillation auto lock changes the hydraulic connecting circuit automatically from Lock to Open and vice versa.

Lock Both track frames cannot oscillate if travel levers (or foot pedals) or oscillating lever is not operated.

How to Use Fire Extinguisher

3.10.1 Fire Extinguishing Precautions Fire extinguisher provided with the machine is effective for the following fires: Ordinary fire: fiber, paper or wood etc fire Fuel or oil fire: diesel fuel or other oil fire Electrical fire: fire in electrical equipment that may suffer electrocution

Avoid Fighting Beyond Your Control Fighting a fire beyond your control can spread the fire. Avoid breathing harmful smoke from fire. Always stand on windward side when fighting a fire. Fighting a fire may be impossible, which depends on the size of a fire or the timing of start of fire extinguishing. When fighting a fire, access the fire after flames become weaker, while maintaining a safe distance of at least about 3 m from the fire. Before fighting a fire, arrange the escape route.

Handle Fire Extinguisher Correctly Do not tilt fire extinguisher, which can cause poor injection of fire extinguishing liquid. Keep fire extinguisher as vertical as possible. Holding the hose, point the nozzle at the flames and jet out fire extinguishing liquid. Fire extinguishing substances conduct electricity. When fighting a fire on electrical equipment, be sure to turn off the power to prevent short circuits or electrocution.

Maintenance Precautions

Wear Protective Clothing Wear protective clothing appropriate to the job. Wear close fitting clothing to prevent from getting caught in the control levers, projections etc. Oily work clothes can start a fire so do not wear. Wear a helmet, safety glasses, earplugs, dust mask, safety shoes etc. Wear protective gloves and safety belt as needed.

Clean the Machine Before service work, clean the machine to easily find out abnormality. Clean the oiling/greasing points and the level gauges. Do not allow debris or dirt enter.

NOTICE Be careful that the water does not splash on electrical parts such as control panel and batteries - short circuit or malfunction may result.

Attach a CAUTION Tag Attach a CAUTION tag to the operator seat to show prohibitions such as "Do Not Start Engine" and "Do Not Operate Levers and Switches."

Remove Hydraulic/Pneumatic Equipment Safely Residual pressure in the hydraulic circuit is released into the air from the air breather on the hydraulic tank. Wait about ten minutes after stopping the engine to loosen hydraulic piping or replace hydraulic parts. As compressor stops, air in the receiver tank is released into the air from the auto relief valve. Wait five minutes or more after stopping the compressor to completely remove the air in the receiver tank, then perform inspection maintenance of pneumatic equipment.

Avoid Hot Surface/High Temperature Each part of the machine is hot immediately after completing the drilling operation or stopping the engine. Contact with those hot surface can cause burns or bodily injury. Rotary head is very hot immediately after completing the drilling operation so avoids contact with rotary head, rod hammer. When replacing engine oil, hydraulic oil or filter etc, wait until the appropriate part of the machine is cooled down to normal temperature. To easily drain oil in low ambient temperature, warm oil to 30-40째C. Hot steam or boiling water can gush out. When removing the cap of the reservoir tank, wait until the radiator is cooled down to normal temperature and remove the cap carefully, while slowly relieving the internal pressure with a cloth put on the cap.

11. How to Select Fuel, Water and Lubricating Oil 11.1 Preparing for Emergencies

WARNING Incorrectly handling fuel and lubricating oil can cause environmental damage or unexpected accident, resulting in death or serious injury. Handle fuel and lubricating oil with great care.

Take Emergency Measures If fuel or lubricating oil is splashed into eyes, flush eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes, then get medical attention immediately. If fuel or lubricating oil is splashed onto skin, flush skin with clean water and soap. If the mist of oils is sucked, move to a place with fresh air and keep the body warm with a blanket etc, then get medical attention immediately. If oil is swallowed, do not vomit forcibly but get medical attention immediately. Wash the mouth with water as needed.

Take Measures Against Leaks Do not allow fuel or lubricating oil flow down the drain or into any water source to prevent secondary trouble and environment pollution. Find locations of oil leaking and fix leak points. Keep fire extinguisher in the right place. Keep sparks, flames and lighted tobacco away from the work area. Wear conductive clothing to prevent static electricity. Wear gas mask as needed. If leak is small, absorb oil with sand, wood chips, cloth etc. If leak is large, enclose leaking spot with earth to stop flowing. Cover leaked oil with foam and collect it in a suitable container. If leaking occurs indoors, open windows and doors for ventilation.

Take Measures Against Fires Wear fire fighting protective clothing such as gas mask and gloves and extinguish fires from the windward. Keep all personnel except firefighting persons clear of the fire area. Foam fire extinguishers are most effective against fires. Do not attempt to hose water on the fire, which may blow up. To prevent spreading fire, hose water over the surrounding area of the fire.

11.2 Fuel

CAUTION Use diesel fuel. Do not use a substitute fuel such as gasoline or alcohol mixed fuel and kerosene, which causes degradation of engine performance or engine failure.

Fuel Specifications The following specific natures are required for the diesel fuel. Must be free from minute dust particles. Must have adequate viscosity. Must have high cetane value. Must have high fluidity at low temperature. Muse is less sulfur content. Must have little residual carbon. Caterpillar recommends the use of fuel meeting the Grade No.2-D requirements of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D975, Standard Specifications for Diesel Fuel Oils. At operating temperatures below 0°C, use a blend of No.1-D and No.2-D fuels, also know as “winterized” No.2-D. ★ For a more detailed description of fuel properties, see the Operation and Maintenance Manual of Caterpillar C13 Engine.

Handle Fuel Safely The engine fuel injection pump and nozzle are precision-made so do not use fuel with water or debris, which can cause failure in the engine system. Refill the fuel tank on the machine on completion of the day's work. Store fuel in a storage tank for at least 24 hours to make water and debris settle and use upper layers of fuel. When refilling, be careful that sediments at the bottom of the fuel can are not pumped out. Open the drain plug on the bottom of a storage tank periodically, and drain mixed water and sediments properly. Replace fuel filters and elements periodically. Before starting the engine, drain mixed water and sediments at the bottom of the fuel tank properly. ★ For draining mixed water and sediments in the fuel tank, see "4.1 Pre-Start Inspection."
