This manual may contain safety information, operation instructions, transportation information, lubrication information, and maintenance information. Some photographs or illustrations in this publication show details or attachments that can be different from your product. Guards and covers might have been removed for illustrative purposes. Continuing improvement and advancement of product design might have caused changes to your product, which are not included in this publication. Whenever a question arises regarding your product, or this publication, consult your dealer for the latest available information.
Safety
The safety section, if present, lists basic safety pre- cautions. In addition, this section identifies the text and locations of safety messages used on the product. Read and understand the basic precautions listed in the safety section before operating or per- forming lubrication, maintenance, and repair on this product.
Operation
The operation section, if present, is a reference for the new operator and a refresher for the experienced operator. This section includes a discussion of gauges, switches, controls, attachment controls, transportation, and towing information (if applicable). Photographs and illustrations guide the operator through correct procedures of checking, starting, operating, and stopping the product. Operating techniques outlined in this publication are basic. Skill and techniques develop as the operator gains knowledge of the product and its capabilities.
Product Information
The product information section, if present, may provide specification data, product intended use, product identification plate locations, and certification information.
Maintenance
The maintenance section, if present, is a guide to equipment care. Proper maintenance and repair are essential to keep the equipment and systems operating correctly. As the owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in the Owner Manual, Operation and Maintenance Manual, and Service Manual. The Maintenance Interval Schedule lists the items to be maintained at a specific service interval. Items without specific intervals are listed under the "W hen Required" service interval. The Maintenance Interval Schedule lists the page number for the step-by-step instructions required to accomplish the scheduled maintenance. Use the Maintenance Interval Schedule as an index or "one safe source" for all maintenance procedures.
Maintenance Intervals
Use the service hour meter to determine servicing intervals. Calendar intervals shown (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) can be used instead of service hour meter intervals if they provide more convenient servicing schedules and approximate the indicated service hour meter reading. Recommended service should always be performed at the interval that occurs first. Under extremely severe, dusty, or wet operating conditions, more frequent lubrication than is specified in the maintenance intervals chart might be necessary. Perform service on items at multiples of the original requirement. For example, at every 500 service hours or 3 months, also service those items listed under every 250 service hours or monthly and every 10 service hours or daily.
Product Capacity
Additional attachments or modifications may exceed product design capacity, which can adversely affect product performance characteristics, safety, reliability, and applicable certifications. Contact your dealer for further information.

•Additionally, each section contains its own TOC.
•In the electronic version, all TOC items are hyperlinked to their respective topics.
1.1.3 Terminology
•The terms left, right, front, and rear refer to machine locations as viewed by the operator sitting in the operator's seat in the cab.
