What's in it

The book starts with safety and the safety labels, then covers the controls, the monitor and day-to-day operation. The maintenance section gives the schedule, lubricants and fluid specs, followed by the machine specifications.

There's also a good attachment guide, covering the blade, the bucket with hook, attachment operation, and removing and fitting attachments. That's useful on a short-tail machine that often works with a blade and lifts in tight city jobs.

Owners use it for the service intervals and to understand the monitor warnings. Fleet managers use it to brief new operators. If the machine came to you without its book, this replaces it.

Good to know

Keep a printed copy in the cab and the PDF on your phone. The book answers most of the everyday questions, such as which oil, how much grease, what a warning light means, and when the next service is due. Those are the questions that come up most often on site. Operators get the most from this book in the first week with a machine. Read the controls and monitor pages, then the daily checks, and keep the service schedule somewhere you'll see it. The lubricant and capacity tables are worth checking before every oil or filter change.
