Equipment Pre-Start Checklist

Use this checklist for the early detection of potential equipment issues, prevent breakdowns and downtime and increase the lifetime of your equipment.

Make sure that the tracks are free of large debris, which could damage the machine.

When you enter, face the machine and use three points of contact while climbing on board.

Once seated and before starting the excavator adjust the seat and armrest to your desired position.

Always fasten your seat belt.

Make sure that the hydraulic control console is in the raised position and that the blade control lever and joysticks are in the neutral position.

Before starting the machine check your surroundings to ensure that no one is in your work area.

Then set the engine speed control to medium idle position.

Start the engine.
