GENERAL SAFETY WARNING DESCRIPTION – CONTINUED

WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE (EXHAUST GASES) CAN KILL!!!  0000

• Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, deadly poison which, when breathed, deprives the body of 

oxygen and causes suffocation. Exposure to air containing carbon monoxide produces symptoms of 

headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, apparent drowsiness, and coma. Permanent brain

damage or death can result from severe exposure.

• Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of internal combustion engines. Carbon monoxide

can become dangerously concentrated under conditions of inadequate ventilation. The following

precautions must be observed to ensure safety of personnel when the engine of the 120M Motor 

Grader is operated.

 – DO NOT operate engine in enclosed areas.

 – DO NOT idle engine without adequate ventilation.

 – BE ALERT for exhaust poisoning symptoms. They are:

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Sleepiness

• Loss of muscular control

 – If you see another person with exhaust poisoning symptoms:

• Remove person from area.

• Expose to fresh air.

• Keep person warm.

• DO NOT permit physical exercise.

• Administer Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) if necessary.

• Notify a medic.

 – BE AWARE. The field protective mask for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, andNuclear (CBRN) protection will not protect you from carbon monoxide poisoning.

  – CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Engine exhaust and some of its

constituents are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects,

and other reproductive harm.

THE BEST DEFENSE AGAINST CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING IS GOOD VENTILATION!

sanding CARC-coated equipment. Do not leave any skin exposed.

  – Use high-efficiency air purifying respirators when grinding or sanding CARC-

coated equipment.

  – Never weld or cut CARC-coated equipment; grind or sand off CARC paint

completely before welding.

  – CARC paint contains isocyanate (HDI) which is highly irritating to skin and

respiratory system. High concentrations of HDI can produce symptoms of itching

and reddening of skin, a burning sensation in throat, and nose and watering of the

eyes. In extreme concentrations, HDI can cause coughing, shortness of breath,

pain during respiration, increased sputum production, and chest tightness.

• Failure to follow these warnings may result in injury or death to personnel.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL (CPC) 0001

1. CPC of Army materiel is a continuing concern. It is important that any corrosion problems with this item bereported so that the problem can be corrected and improvements can be made to prevent the problem in future

items.

2. Corrosion specifically occurs with metals. It is an electrochemical process that causes the degradation of 

metals. It is commonly caused by exposure to moisture, acids, bases, or salts. An example is the rusting of 

iron. Corrosion damage in metals can be seen, depending on the metal, as tarnishing, pitting, fogging, surface

residue, and/or cracking.

3. Plastics, composites, and rubbers can also degrade. Degradation is caused by thermal (heat), oxidation

(oxygen), solvation (solvents), or photolytic (light, typically UV) processes. The most common exposures are

excessive heat or light. Damage from these processes will appear as cracking, softening, swelling, and/or 

breaking.

4. SF Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report should be submitted to the address specified in DA PAM

750-8, TAMMS Users Manual.

OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCES 0000 00

There are no ozone depleting substances contained on the machine or used during machine maintenance.

INTRODUCTORY INFORMATION -

0 0 0 3 THEORY OF OPERATION

INTRODUCTION 0003

1. The 120M Motor Grader consists of the following functional systems: engine, powertrain, brakes, electrical,steering, and hydraulics.

2. This work package explains how the systems and components of the machine work together. A functional

description is provided for each major component and system.

3. The 120M Motor Grader is an all-purpose, medium sized, wheeled vehicle used for spreading and evening

various types of granular material (dirt, stone, sand, etc.). Power is provided by a Caterpillar in-line, six-

cylinder, direct injected, diesel engine. Hydraulically operated implements allow blade positioning for forward

or backward grading, ditch or embankment grading, and snow removal. A scarifier allows loosening of 

compacted material prior to grading. Front leaning wheel and frame articulation provide maximum

maneuverability. The grader has a sound-suppressing Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) cab with

insulation, heater, and windows, which allows for all-weather operation.

ENGINE 0003

1. General. The grader is equipped with a Caterpillar C6.6 Acert VHP turbocharged diesel engine with six in-line

cylinders, generating 153 horsepower @ 2,000 RPM.

2. Fuel System. Diesel fuel is drawn from the tank by a fuel transfer pump, filtered by a primary fuel filter, routed

to the fuel injection pump and secondary filter, and then injected through the fuel injector nozzles into the

engine cylinders. Air is drawn in through dry-type, replaceable filter elements. A check valve removes incoming

dust from the air and routes it out through the exhaust system. The air is routed from the filter assembly to the

turbocharger which pressurizes the air and sends it to the air-to-air aftercooler. The aftercooler, located near 

the radiator, reduces the air temperature making it denser. The denser air charge allows for more air and fuel

to be combusted per engine cycle, increasing engine output power.

3. Cooling System. Provides coolant to the engine. Coolant is circulated through the engine by a gear-driven

water pump. The hydraulic oil cooler is located in front of the radiator. The engine oil cooler is integral to the

engine. The transmission oil cooler is located behind an access cover below the left front access door.

4. Lubrication System. The engine lubrication system consists of a gear-driven oil pump, oil fi lter, oil cooler, and

oil pan. The engine is lubricated by cooled and pressurized oil that is circulated through the engine block and

head.

5. Exhaust System. The exhaust system removes exhaust gases from the engine through the exhaust manifold

and turbocharger. The gases flow into exhaust pipes and a muffler to the atmosphere behind the cab.

POWERTRAIN 0003

1. Transmission. Eight speeds are provided in forward and six in reverse. A transmission modulator control

(inching pedal) disengages the transmission from the drive wheels. Inching allows the operator to vary the

machine ground speed while keeping engine speed high for quick implement response.

2. Rear Axle Differential and Lock Differential. A four-wheeled tandem rear axle arrangement houses axle

shafts driven by a lock-unlock equipped differential. The axle shafts turn the final drive sprocket chains through

planetary reduction gears. The sprocket chains then drive the final drive sprockets.

3. Final Drive Assembly. The sprocket chains drive the final drive sprockets and axle shafts which turn the rear 

wheel spindles inside the tandem axle housing.

BRAKES 0003

1. General. The oil-bathed, multiple-disc service brakes are hydraulically activated. Each tandem wheel end

contains a service brake unit. A brake wear indicator is easily accessible for checking brake wear. A

compensator maintains consistent brake performance.

2. Service Brakes. A foot pedal is used for engaging multiple disc brake assemblies for each wheel within the

tandem and spindle housings.

3. Parking Brakes. Multiple oil-bathed disc-type located in the transmission case. Electrically actuated by an

ON/OFF switch on the right side of the instrument panel, the parking brake is spring applied and hydraulically

released. The parking brake is integrated into the Operator Presence System to prevent unintended machine

movement while the operator is not in the cab seat.

4. Brake Accumulators. Two brake accumulators, located behind the cab, assist in applying the service brakes.

The accumulator remains charged even after the engine is shut down and provides limited braking ability.

ELECTRICAL 0003

1. The electrical system, interruptible by a lockable battery disconnect switch, consists of two 12V batteries con-

nected in series with negative grounding, providing 24V to operate the electrical systems and components.

2. The system contains all the necessary switches, circuit breakers, fuses, relays, harnesses, and connectors to

operate the machine, including a NATO slave receptacle.

3. The major systems comprising the electrical system are:a. Starting system.

b. Charging systems.

c. Messenger display system.

d. Service, work, and blackout lights.

HYDRAULICS 0003

1. General. The hydraulic system is comprised of a single fluid tank, an implement and steering pump, a brake

and hydraulic fan pump, a secondary steering pump, and a set of bank valves to distribute hydraulic fluid

pressure to the various hydraulically activated systems (braking, steering, articulation, wheel lean, and earth

moving components). The system also contains various control valves, check valves, sensors, and

accumulators to maintain correct pressures. The fluid tank with a sight glass to check fluid level is located

behind the left rear access door. A hydraulic fluid cooler is located in front of the radiator.

2. Steering System. The steering system utilizes hydraulic pressure produced by the implement and steering

pump to actuate steering cylinders. An electric secondary hydraulic steering pump, located below the cab,

provides hydraulic steering pressure in the event of implement and steering pump failure.

3. Steering Cylinders. There are two steering cylinders mounted at the front axle that turn the front wheels. The

cylinders are powered by the hydraulic system and controlled by the steering pump and joystick controls.

4. Wheel Lean Cylinder . The wheel lean cylinder is mounted on the right side of the front axle. It is powered by

the hydraulic system and controlled by a switch on the left joystick. The function of the wheel lean cylinder is to

set the front wheels at an angle. This counteracts blade pressure exerted sideways against the front wheels

when grading or moving heavy material. The wheel lean cylinder also sets front wheel angle to prevent the

front of the machine from slipping sideways and downward when the machine is moving across a slope.

5. Ground Engagement Tools. The scarifier height, blade height, rotation, tilt, sideshift, centershift, and angleare all hydraulically powered and controlled using joysticks and joystick controls.

6. Brake System. The service brakes are hydraulically activated by pressing down on the foot pedal in the cab.

Hydraulic pressure is provided by the engine driven fan and brake pump located behind the left front access

door. The parking brake is spring actuated and hydraulically released via a switch located on the right side of 

the instrument panel activated by the operator.

7. All-Wheel Drive (AWD). All-wheel drive provides machine propulsion to the front tires when commanded by

the operator. The AWD control is located on the right-side control panel. All-wheel drive can be operated in

either CREEP or MANUAL mode by providing hydraulic fluid pressure to hydraulic motors at the front wheels.

When in CREEP mode, the machine is propelled only by the front wheels. Speed in CREEP mode is variable

from 0 to 5 mph (0 to 8 km/h). In MANUAL mode, the front wheels can be commanded to run at 99 percent,

100 percent, or 120 percent of rear wheel speed.

WARNING

• CARBON MONOXIDE (EXHAUST GASES) CAN KILL!

• Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, deadly poison which, when breathed, deprives

the body of oxygen and causes suffocation. Exposure to air containing carbon monoxide

produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of muscular control, apparent

drowsiness, and coma. Permanent brain damage or death can result from severe

exposure.

• Carbon monoxide occurs in the exhaust fumes of internal combustion engines. Carbon

monoxide can become dangerously concentrated under conditions of inadequate

ventilation. The following precautions must be observed to ensure safety of personnel

when the engine of the 120M Grader is operated.

• DO NOT operate engine in enclosed areas.

• DO NOT idle engine without adequate ventilation.• BE ALERT for exhaust poisoning symptoms. They are:

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Sleepiness

• Loss of muscular control

• If you see another person with exhaust poisoning symptoms:

• Remove person from area.

• Expose to fresh air.

• Keep person warm.

• DO NOT permit physical exercise.

• Administer Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) if necessary.

• Notify a medic.

• BE AWARE. The field protective mask for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear 

(CBRN) protection will not protect you from carbon monoxide poisoning.

• CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Engine exhaust and some of its constituents

are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive

harm.

The Best Defense Against Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Is Good Ventilation !

TRANSMISSION OPERATION 0005

The transmission has eight forward gears, six reverse gears, and inching capability through the use of a transmis-

sion modulator pedal. Shifting can be performed by either launching the machine from NEUTRAL or sequential

speed shifting. Shuttle shifting (changing direction quickly) is also possible.

Before operator takes control of machine, the following events must occur:

1. Parking brake must be engaged.2. Operator must be present in seat.

3. Transmission control switch must be in NEUTRAL position.

4. Left joystick must be aligned with front wheels.

5. Operator disengages parking brake.

WARNING

DO NOT leave operator seat while machine is in motion. Operator Presence System will

not respond. Failure to follow this warning may result in injury of death to personnel.

NOTE

Parking brake will automatically engage if the operator leaves the seat while the machine

is stopped and parking brake is not already engaged.

6. To re-establish operational control after parking brake has been automatically set, operator must return to seat

and reset parking brake by pushing top of parking brake switch, then pushing bottom of switch (Figure 9). Park-

ing brake will disengage and allow operator to regain operational control.

7. If steering joystick was disturbed during step 6, repeat steps 1 though 5.

Moving Machine from NEUTRAL Using Automodulation 0005

CAUTION

• Avoid automodulation while machine is under load.

• Selecting forward gears six through eight or reverse gears five or six isNOT recommended.

• Failure to follow these cautions may result in damage to equipment.

NOTE

• Forward gears one through five and reverse gears one through four are recommended for 

automodulation.

• Do not change engine speed while automodulating. Harsh shifting will result.

 Automodulation entails shifting into forward or reverse gear by moving transmission control switch from NEUTRAL

position to either FORWARD or REVERSE position (Figure 10). Transmission initial gear will engage smoothly via

direction clutch. If initial gear is not desired, use upshift or downshift switch to select desired gear.

Sequential Speed Shifting 0005

Sequential speed shifting allows the operator to change transmission gears while the machine is in motion. Activat-

ing Upshift and Downshift switches as desired will result in obtaining optimum ground speed for the operation

being performed (Figure 12). Speed shifting can be performed at any loading as shifts are automatically compen-

sated based on engine load.Upshifts can occur at any engine speed but should be matched to load. Several shifts can be commanded at one

time, although there is a delay between shifts.

Downshifting requires engine speed to be less than full throttle to prevent engine overspeeding. Downshift control

requests are computer controlled. If engine speed is too high, engine speed is reduced to allow downshift to occur.

Upon shift completion, throttle control is returned to the operator.

Programmable Transmission Initial Gear Setting 0005

The initial gear is the gear that engages when the transmission control switch is engaged in FORWARD or 

REVERSE position without selecting a specific gear. Each direction can have only one initial gear, and each direc-

tion can use different initial gears. Initial gears can be the same as but not higher than what is set as maximum

gear. Initial gear setting can be changed using the Messenger system when transmission is in NEUTRAL and themachine is stopped. Changes made are new defaults at time of change or after a power cycle.

Programmable Transmission Maximum Gear Setting 0005

The maximum gear is the highest gear the transmission will shift into. Each direction can have only one maximumgear, and each direction can use different maximum gears. For FORWARD position, gears 3 through 8 are avail-able. In REVERSE Position, gears 3 through 6 are available. Initial gear setting can be changed using ElectronicTechnician when transmission is in NEUTRAL and the machine is stopped. Changes made are new defaults attime of change or after a power cycle

Transmission Modulator Control (inching pedal) 0005

The transmission modulator control (inching pedal) disengages power to the wheels. Press pedal in order todecrease power to the wheels. A sensor monitors pedal position and varies hydraulic pressure to directionclutches. When the pedal is fully depressed, power to the wheels will be disengaged.

The inching pedal can be used in all load conditions and provides the operator with speed control between two dis-tinct gears. This is useful when the operator demands high engine speed for quick implement control while varyingground speed.

CAUTION

• Avoid prolonged use of the inching pedal when moving heavy loads. Shift into lower gear to match load condition. Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage.

• Do not use inching pedal as a clutch for directional changes. Machine is designed to“shuttle shift”. Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage.

If the inching function is used in high load conditions, the operator should shift into a gear matched for that loadcondition. If constant stalling occurs, downshifting is advisable.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) 0005

 All-wheel drive (AWD) allows the operator to choose which wheels propel the machine and how fast the front

wheels turn in relation to the rear wheels. All-Wheel Drive is controlled by an AWD Mode Switch (CREEP {turtle},

OFF {circle}, and MANUAL {hand} positions) and an AWD Control Dial (minus, circle, and plus signs) (Figure 18).

• With AWD off, only tandem wheels propel the machine. Machine speed is controlled by the accelerator 

pedal.

• When AWD is activated and CREEP mode engaged, only the front tires propel the machine. Front wheel

speed (zero to 5 mph {8km/h}) is controlled by the AWD Control Dial. Creep mode provides very precise

speed control when fine blading around obstacles, and prevents rear wheels from damaging finished sur-

faces due to driving force of rear wheels.

• When AWD is activated and MANUAL mode engaged, all six wheels propel the machine. Front wheel

speed (98 to 120 percent of rear wheel speed) is controlled by the AWD Control Dial. The center detent is

100% or 1:1 front wheel speed to rear wheel speed. Higher aggression (101% to 120%) allows more

power to be transmitted through the front wheels, providing better steering control in low traction conditions

and when bank sloping when trying to keep front wheels on slope while rear wheels are on level ground.

Figure 18. All-Wheel Drive Controls. 005

SCARIFIER OPERATION 0005

The scarifier, made of up to 11 shanks with teeth, is used to break up hard ground or material to a regulated depth

to make it ready to grade. The number of shanks/teeth used depends on the consistency of the material being bro-

ken up.

The center five shanks (with teeth) may be removed to allow scarifier assembly to be raised to gain additional

ground clearance when necessary. The remaining shanks can be stowed upside down in the scarifier frame, if 

additional clearance is required. Up to five removed scarifier shanks may be stored in the scarifier shank stowage

rack located at the front of the machine. A strap is provided to bind shanks together to avoid loss. Stow shanks in

rack facing every other one backwards to allow stowage of up to five shanks. Refer to Scarifier Tooth and Shank 

Maintenance (WP 0027).

Scarifier digging angle can be adjusted to accommodate different needs. Notify Field Level Maintenance if scarifier 

digging angle adjustment is required.

CAUTION

• Make sure the blade is lowered to the ground before adjusting centershift. Failure to follow

this caution may result in damage to machine.• Make sure frame is in straight alignment. If the machine is articulated, the tire sidewalls

may be forced against the back slope, causing tire sidewall damage and also forcing dirt

between the tire and rim, causing air loss and flat tires.

NOTE

• Steps 1 through 7 pertain to making a “Marking Cut.”

• Ditching is normally done on the right side of the grader as it has greater reach to this side.

20. Place the grader in forward motion and maintain a position and course so the tow of the moldboard passes

directly over the center of the ditch.

21. Apply enough down pressure on the toe side to skim the material from the shoulder. Do not cut the shoulder.

Figure 49. Lower the Blade to the Ground. 0006

22. As the grader passes the finishing point of the ditch, continue forward until all the material in front of the

moldboard passes under it or is windrowed off the heel.23. Continue forward until enough space is available to position the grader to back up to straddle the windrow.

CAUTION

Do not back the grader in the wide reach position. A safety factor is apparent; the

moldboard would be extended out past the tires. By placing the moldboard in the right

hand general grading position, the safety factor is minimized and the moldboard is

positioned to execute the next maneuver.

24. Stop the grader and place the moldboard in the right hand general grading position.

25. Ensure the front wheels are straight up and down prior to backing the grader.

26. Back the grader to the starting point by straddling the windrow.

NOTE

Steps 27 through 33 pertain to skimming the surface to spread material towards center 

establishing a crown in the road.

27. Stop the grader outside the starting point of the project and lean the wheels toward the heel.

28. Adjust the heel approximately 2-3 in. (50-75 mm) off the surface and ensure that the toe is just touching the

CAUTION

Towing of a disabled machine with the engine stopped may cause transmission damage.

The transmission will not have lubrication. Do not tow a disabled machine any farther than

is necessary to reach a convenient location for repairs.

NOTE

If the brakes are in good operating condition, the machine has limited wheel brake ability.

The pedal effort is high due to the lack of hydraulic boost.

1. Turn on secondary steering pump on stopped machine. You can steer machine while secondary steering

pump is on. Secondary steering pump will be activated for a maximum of ten seconds. While secondary

steering pump is activated you can use left joystick to align front wheels of machine.

WARNING

When the driveshaft is removed, the machine has NO parking brake. The machine can roll

and cause personal injury or death. Block the wheels securely so that the machine cannot

move.

SECONDARY STEERING 0007

WARNING

• Personal injury or death can occur if steering is lost completely during operation.

• Do not continue to operate the machine using secondary steering. If the secondary

steering activates during operation, immediately park machine in a safe location. Notify

Field Level Maintenance.

• The machine’s batteries must have a normal charge and the secondary steering electrical

system must be in proper working condition. A low charge condition, or any defect in the

battery, battery cells, or electrical circuit can cause loss of secondary steering and could

result in personal injury and/or damage to the machine.

CAUTION

Once secondary steering system has been activated, it should remain on no longer than

one minute. This should be sufficient time to safely steer machine to a stop. When the

machine is stopped, turn engine start switch to OFF position to turn off secondary

steering. Prolonged use of secondary steering system (longer than one minute) will cause

electric motor to overheat and cause damage to its components. If secondary steering

system is activated for longer than one minute, replace the pump, motor, and relay. Also,

wiring must be inspected for damage due to overheating. Notify Field Level Maintenance.

1. The secondary steering pump will activate automatically when the main steering power source fails, such as a

primary steering pump failure or engine failure. The secondary steering control wil l activate automatically when

the primary steering control system fails. Engine start switch must be in ON position for this system to operate.

2. The primary steering system pressure indicator will illuminate when there is a problem with the primarysteering system.

3. The secondary steering system indicator will be amber in color when secondary steering system is active or 

secondary steering system is being tested. Alert indicator will be red in color when a problem with secondary

steering system exists.

OPERATOR MAINTENANCE -

0 0 1 2 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS AND SERVICES (PMCS) INTRODUCTION

GENERAL00012

1. To ensure that the 120M Motor Grader is ready for operation at all times, it must be inspected on a regular 

basis so that defects may be found and corrected before they result in injury, damage, or equipment failure.

2. The PMCS Table in WP 0013 contains systematic instructions on inspections, lubrications, services, tests, and

corrections to be performed by the operator to keep the equipment in good operating condition and ready for 

its primary mission.

EXPLANATION OF TABLE ENTRIES 00012

1. Item No. Column. Numbers in this column are for reference. When completing DA Form 2404 or DA Form

5988-E, Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet, include the item number for the check/service

indicating a fault. Item numbers also appear in the order that you must perform checks and services for the

interval listed.

2. Interval Column. This column tells you when you must perform the procedure in the Procedure column:

a. Before procedures must be done immediately before you operate the grader.

b. During procedures must be done while you are operating the grader.

c.  After procedures must be done immediately after you have operated the grader.

d. Biweekly or Every 100 Service Hours procedures must be done once every two weeks or after every

100 hours of machine operation.

e. Initial 500 Service Hours (or at first oil change) procedures must be done after the first 500 hours of 

machine operation or at the first engine oil change.

f. Every 500 Service Hours or 3 Months procedures must be done every 500 hours of machine operation or 

every three months.

g. Every 1,000 Service Hours or 6 Months procedures must be done every 1,000 hours of machine operationor every six months.

h. Every 2,000 Service Hours or 2 Years procedures must be done every 2,000 hours of machine operation

or every two years.

i. Yearly procedures must be done once each year.

3. Item to Check/Service Column. This column lists the item to be checked or serviced.

NOTE

The WARNINGs and CAUTIONs appearing in your PMCS table should always be

observed. WARNINGs and CAUTIONs appear before applicable procedures. You must

observe these WARNINGs to prevent injury or death to yourself and others, and

CAUTIONs to prevent your equipment from being damaged.4. Procedure Column. This column gives the procedure you must perform to check or service the item listed in

the Item to Check/Service column, to know if the equipment is ready and available for its intended mission. You

must perform the procedure at the time stated in the Interval column.

5. Not Fully Mission Capable If: Column. Information in this column tells you what faults will keep your equip-

ment from being capable of performing its primary mission. If you perform check/service procedures that show

faults listed in this column, the equipment is not mission-capable. Follow standard operating procedures for 

maintaining the equipment or reporting equipment failure.

GENERAL PMCS PROCEDURES 00012

1. Intervals (on-condition or hardtime) and the related manhour times are based on normal operation. The

manhour time specified is the time you need to do all the services prescribed for a particular interval. Change

the hardtime interval if your lubricants are contaminated or if you are operating the equipment under adverse

operating conditions, including longer-than-usual operating hours. The hardtime interval may be extended

during periods of low activity. If extended, adequate preservation precautions must be taken.

2. Always perform PMCS in the same order so it gets to be a habit. Once you have had some practice, you will

spot anything wrong in a hurry. If the equipment does not perform as required, refer to the appropriate trouble-

shooting procedure in Chapter 3.

3. If anything looks wrong and you cannot fix it, write it on your DA Form 2404 or DA Form 5988-E. If you find

something seriously wrong, IMMEDIATELY report it to your supervisor.

4. Before performing preventive maintenance, read all the checks required for the applicable interval and prepare

all that is needed to make all the checks. You will always need a rag (Item 17, WP 0032) or two.

WARNING

Solvent cleaning compound MIL-PRF-680 Type III is an environmentally compliant and

low toxic material. However, it may be irritating to the eyes and skin. Use protective gloves

and goggles. Use in well-ventilated areas. Keep away from open flames and other 

sources of ignition. Failure to follow this warning may result in injury or death to personnel.

CAUTION

Be especially careful when cleaning electrical system components including lighting.

Damage or impaired operation could result if this caution is not observed.

a. Keep Equipment Clean. Dirt, grease, oil, and debris get in the way and may cover up a serious problem.

Clean as you work and as needed. Use solvent cleaning compound (Item 2, WP 0032) on all metal

surfaces. Use detergent (Item 4, WP 0032) and water when you clean rubber, plastic, and painted

surfaces. Spot paint as required to prevent corrosion.

b. Bolts, Nuts, and Screws. Ensure that they are not loose, missing, bent, or broken. Report loose, missing,

or damaged bolts, nuts, and screws to your supervisor.

c. Welds. Look for loose or chipped paint, rust, or gaps where parts are welded together. Report bad welds to

your supervisor.

d. Electrical Wires and Connectors. Look for cracked or broken insulation, bare wires, and loose or broken

connectors. Report loose connections and faulty wiring to your supervisor.

e. Hoses, Lines, and Fittings. Look for wear and damage. Check for loose clamps and fittings. Report any

worn, damaged, or loose hoses, lines, and fittings to your supervisor.

ChecksWARNING

• DO NOT service cooling system unless engine has been

allowed to cool down. This is a pressurized cooling

system and escaping steam or hot coolant will cause

serious burns.

• DO NOT remove cooling system radiator cap when

engine is hot. Allow engine to cool down. Loosen cap to

first stop and let any pressure out of cooling system, thenremove cap. Failure to follow this warning may cause

serious burns.

• Wear effective eye, hand, and skin protection when

handling coolants. Failure to do so may cause injury to

personnel.

CAUTION

• Do not add water to pre-mixed antifreeze. If water is

added to pre-mixed antifreeze, it will be diluted and will not

provide proper engine protection and engine and/or cool-

ing system damage may occur.

• Be sure to identify the type of antifreeze being added, or engine and/or cooling system damage may occur.

NOTE

• Some antifreeze is pre-mixed with water and does not

require mixing with water.

• Traditional antifreeze requires mixing with an equal

amount of water. Mix antifreeze and water before adding

to machine cooling system to ensure proper 1:1 ratio is

used.

• It is allowable to mix traditional and pre-mix antifreeze

types in the same cooling system.

66 After Coolant Level

Checks WARNING

• DO NOT service cooling system unless engine has beenallowed to cool down. This is a pressurized coolingsystem and escaping steam or hot coolant will causeserious burns.

• DO NOT remove cooling system radiator cap whenengine is hot. Allow engine to cool down. Loosen cap tofirst stop and let any pressure out of cooling system, thenremove cap. Failure to follow this warning may causeserious burns.

• Wear effective eye, hand, and skin protection whenhandling coolants. Failure to do so may cause injury topersonnel.

CAUTION

• Do not add water to pre-mixed antifreeze. If water isadded to pre-mixed antifreeze, it will be diluted and will notprovide proper engine protection and engine and/or cool-ing system damage may occur.

• Be sure to identify the type of antifreeze being added, or engine and/or cooling system damage may occur.

NOTE

• Some antifreeze is pre-mixed with water and does notrequire mixing with water.

• Traditional antifreeze requires mixing with an equalamount of water. Mix antifreeze and water before addingto machine cooling system to ensure proper 1:1 ratio isused.

• It is allowable to mix traditional and pre-mix antifreezetypes in the same cooling system.

CAUTION

• Do not tap or strike air filter element to remove dust. Damage to air filter element may

result.• Do not wash the air filter element.

• Do not use air filter elements with damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Dirt entering engine

will cause damage to engine components.

• Do not attempt to clean a secondary air filter element.

• Do not use compressed air at pressure greater than 30 psi (207 kPa) to clean primary

element.

• Failure to follow these cautions may result in damage to equipment.

NOTE

Use either low pressure compressed air or a vacuum to clean primary air filter element.

Direct airflow from inside element and up and down pleats rather than across pleats.

2. With assistance from Field Level Maintenance personnel, clean primary element.

3. Inspect primary element for tears, holes, damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Discard if damaged.

4. Inspect element using a work light. Light should be visible through the element when light is placed inside ele-

ment. If necessary, compare to a new element to confirm results.

CAUTION

Do not remove secondary air filter element until you have the new element ready to install.

This will reduce the possibility of dirt entering the engine. Failure to follow this caution may

result in damage to equipment.

5. Remove secondary air filter element (Figure 1, Item 4). Discard element.
