When it is necessary to work under the machine with the body (bed) raised, attach the body (bed) retaining cable to the rear tow point. Install the rear tow point pin through the end of the retaining cable. Failure to properly secure the body (bed) may result in personal injury or death. |
Do not move the hoist control to the LOWER position when the body retaining cable is installed between the dump body and the rear tow pin. When the hoist control is in the LOWER position, hydraulic force may cause the body retaining cable to fail with the potential for injury or death. |

Clean the body support pads with high pressure water or steam. If damage is found, consult your Caterpillar dealer for specific repair procedures.
Visually inspect each of the body support pads. If the inspection indicates uneven wear of the body support pads, you may need to readjust the load distribution of the dump body. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for more information. There should be no gaps between the body support pads and the mating surfaces.
