As Needed

Check Radiator/Oil Cooler

Check radiator/oil cooler for dirt, grass, and other
debris as needed. Clean with compressed air or
spray wash as needed. Be careful not to damage
fins with high pressure air or water. Check more
often if operating in dusty or grassy conditions.

Inspect Seat Belt

Check seat belt and mounting hardware as
needed. Inspect the webbing, buckle and latch,
retractor, and mounting hardware.

Buckle and Latch

Check that the buckle and latch (1) are not
broken or corroded. When inserting the latch into
the buckle, the latch should insert smoothly until
an audible click is heard. Latch should not release
when the seat belt is tugged.

Webbing

Inspect seat belt webbing (2) to ensure that it is not cut, frayed or showing signs of extreme or unusual
wear. Check the area near the buckle and latch and anywhere the seat belt has contact with equipment or
seat.

Retractor

Check that the retractor (3) operates smoothly when the belt is pulled and released. Retractor should spool
belt without locking.

Mounting Hardware

Inspect the seat belt mounting bolts (4) on both sides of the seat to ensure they are tight. Replace missing,
damaged, or corroded bolts.
