Servicing Tractor Air Intake Filter and/or Radiator
CAUTION:
Help prevent bodily injury from accidental lowering of loader. Do not service air filter with loader elevated and unsupported.
1.
Engage parking brake and/or place transmission in "PARK".
2.
Lower loader to ground.
3.
Shut off engine and remove key.
4.
Relieve pressure in hydraulic system. (See procedures in tractor Operator's Manual.)
Normally, access to filter can be made with bucket flat on ground.
However, due to tractor size and tire variations, it may be necessary to do one of the following:
-
Dump bucket fully and lower loader to ground.
-
If equipped with a forklift or bale spear, raise loader to required height and place safety stands under frame of attachment. Lower attachment on stands, relieve hydraulic pressure and ensure weight of loader is fully supported by safety stands.
-
If not equipped with an attachment, raise loader to required height and place safety stands under "boom arms". Lower loader on stands, relieve hydraulic pressure and ensure weight of loader is fully supported by safety stands.
