Maintenance Interval ScheduleSMCS Code: 1000; 7000
Ensure that all safety information, warnings, andinstructions are read and understood before anyoperation or any maintenance procedures areperformed.
The user is responsible for the performance ofmaintenance. All adjustments, the use of properlubricants, fluids, filters, and the replacement ofcomponents due to normal wear and aging areincluded. Failure to adhere to proper maintenanceintervals and procedures may result in diminishedperformance of the product and/or accelerated wearof components.
Use mileage, fuel consumption, service hours, orcalendar time, WHICH EVER OCCURS FIRST,in order to determine the maintenance intervals.Products that operate in severe operating conditionsmay require more frequent maintenance. Refer to themaintenance procedure for any other exceptions thatmay change the maintenance intervals.
Note: The aftertreatment system can be expectedto function properly for the useful life of theengine (emissions durability period), as defined byregulation. All prescribed maintenance requirementsmust be followed.
Note: Before each consecutive interval is performed,all maintenance from the previous interval must beperformed.
Note: If Cat HYDO Advanced hydraulic oils are used,the hydraulic oil change interval is extended to 3000hours. SOS services may extend the oil changeeven longer. Consult your Cat dealer for details.

Braking System - TestSMCS Code: 4251-081; 4267-081
Personal injury can result if the machine movesduring testing. If the machine begins to move dur-ing testing, reduce the engine speed immediatelyand place the transmission control in the P posi-tion in order to engage the parking brake.
The following tests are used to determine if theservice brake system, the secondary brake system,and the parking brake system are functional. Thesetests are not intended to measure the maximumbrake holding effort. The brake holding effort that isrequired to sustain a machine at a specific enginerpm varies depending on the machine. The variationsare the differences in the engine setting, in the powertrain efficiency, and in the brake holding ability, etc.
During the test of the brakes, compare the previousengine rpm and the recent engine rpm. This willdetermine the system deterioration.

Cleaning Primary Air FilterElements
NOTICECaterpillar recommends certified air filter cleaning ser-vices available at participating Caterpillar dealers. TheCaterpillar cleaning process uses proven proceduresto assure consistent quality and sufficient filter life.
Observe the following guidelines if you attempt toclean the filter element:
Do not tap or strike the filter element in order to re-move dust.
Do not wash the filter element.
Use low pressure compressed air in order to removethe dust from the filter element. Air pressure must notexceed 207 kPa (30 psi). Direct the air flow up thepleats and down the pleats from the inside of the filterelement. Take extreme care in order to avoid damageto the pleats.
Do not use air filters with damaged pleats, gaskets, orseals. Dirt entering the engine will cause damage toengine components.

SEBU8406-04 169Maintenance Section
Engine Air Filter Secondary Element - Replace
The primary air filter element can be used up tosix times if the element is properly cleaned and theelement is properly inspected. When the primaryair filter element is cleaned, check for rips or tearsin the filter material. The primary air filter elementshould be replaced at least one time per year. Thisreplacement should be performed regardless of thenumber of cleanings.
Visually inspect the primary air filter elements beforecleaning. Inspect the air filter elements for damage tothe seal, the gaskets, and the outer cover.
There are two common methods that are used toclean primary air filter elements:
Pressurized air
Vacuum cleaning
Pressurized Air
Pressurized air can be used to clean primary air filterelements that have not been cleaned more than twotimes. Pressurized air will not remove deposits ofcarbon and oil. Use filtered, dry air with a maximumpressure of 207 kPa (30 psi).
g00281692Illustration 188
Note: When the primary air filter elements arecleaned, always begin with the clean side (inside)in order to force dirt particles toward the dirty side(outside).
Aim the hose so that the air flows inside the elementalong the length of the filter in order to help preventdamage to the paper pleats. Do not aim the stream ofair directly at the primary air filter element. Dirt couldbe forced further into the pleats.
Vacuum Cleaning
Vacuum cleaning is another method for cleaningprimary air filter elements which require daily cleaningbecause of a dry, dusty environment. Cleaning withpressurized air is recommended prior to vacuumcleaning. Vacuum cleaning will not remove depositsof carbon and oil.
Inspecting the Primary Air FilterElements
g00281693Illustration 189
Inspect the clean, dry primary air filter element.Use a 60W blue light in a dark room or in a similarfacility. Place the blue light in the primary air filterelement. Rotate the primary air filter element. Inspectthe primary air filter element for tears and/or holes.Inspect the primary air filter element for light that mayshow through the filter material. If it is necessary inorder to confirm the result, compare the primary airfilter element to a new primary air filter element thathas the same part number.
Do not use a primary air filter element that has anytears and/or holes in the filter material. Do not usea primary air filter element with damaged pleats,gaskets, or seals. Discard damaged primary air filterelements.
