Walk-Around Inspection

Walking up to your machine first thing is a great time to perform a walk-around inspection.

• Open the engine hood and covers to check for combustible materials around the engine and battery and liquid leakage around the engine and hydraulic devices.
• Inspect the exterior of the machine for any damaged components. A few components to keep an eye out for are the lights, attachments, hoses, bucket, bucket teeth, hook, slip stopper, hook mount, handrail, crawler, shoe slide, track roller, idler, canopy, and cab.
• While sitting in the operator's seat, make sure to check the windshield, seat, seat belt, monitor, instruments and switches for damage and address any damaged, dirty or worn parts before operating the machine.
