Do not operate or work on this machine unless you have read and understand the instructions and warnings in the Operation and Maintenance Manual. Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death. Contact your Caterpillar dealer for replacement manuals. Proper care is your responsibility.

Batteries may be located in separate compartments. When using jumper cables, always connect positive (+) cable to positive (+) terminal of battery connected to starter solenoid and negative (−) cable from external source to starter negative (−) terminal (if machine not equipped with starter negative terminal, connect to engine block.) Follow procedure in the operation manual.

Electrical shock hazard. Unit injector system 90-120 volts.

Do not repair until you have read the Operation and Maintenance Manual.

Microwave radiation may cause eye damage. To avoid injury to eyes, do not look directly into the face of the ground speed sensor.

Structural damage, an overturn, modification, alteration, or improper repair can impair this structure's protection capability thereby voiding this certification. Do not weld on or drill holes in the structure. Consult a Caterpillar dealer to determine this structure's limitations without voiding its certification.

Unexpected hitch movement during implement coupling or uncoupling can occur. To prevent personal injury the hitch control must be set in the manual mode while coupling or uncoupling implements. Consult the Operation and Maintenance Manual for complete three-point hitch operating instructions.

Personal injury could result from improperly coupled implements. Be certain latches are fully engaged on both sides before transporting or pulling the implement.

To avoid personal injury due to entanglement with rotating shaft, keep PTO master cover and all power drive system covers in place. Install PTO shaft guard when the system is not in use.

Relieve accumulator pressure before removing or attaching any service tooling.

Hydraulic accumulator contains gas and oil under high pressure. Improper removal or repair procedures could cause severe injury. To remove or repair, instructions in the service manual must be followed. Special equipment is required for testing and charging.

Avoid contact with hot surfaces. Exhaust piping and engine components become hot during engine operation and cool slowly after engine shutdown. Any contact with hot surfaces can cause severe burns.

Riding on this machine is only allowed if a passenger seat is provided and if the driver's view is not obstructed. An accident and resulting injury or death could occur if the driver's view or access to controls is obstructed by a passenger.

When using jump start cables, always connect positive + cable to positive + jump start post and negative - cable to negative - jump start post. Improper jump start cable connections can cause an explosion, resulting in personal injury.

Entanglement with rotating machinery can cause injury or death. To avoid entanglement, do not approach or work on the PTO shaft or equipment with the PTO in operation. Shut off the engine and allow the PTO to come to a stop before working on the PTO or equipment.

Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak. If fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated by a doctor familiar with this type of injury immediately.

Weak or inoperative hood lift-assist struts could cause the hood to lower unexpectedly, possibly causing personal injury. To prevent unexpected hood lowering, always engage the hood support latch as soon as the hood is in the full-raised position.

Do not start the engine or move any of the controls if there is a "Do Not Operate" or similar warning tag attached to the start switch or controls.

This machine will turn if the steering wheel is moved when the engine is running, even if the parking brake is engaged. To avoid personal injury due to unexpected machine movement, make sure the surrounding area is free of personnel before starting or operating the machine. Be prepared to apply the service brakes in order to counteract any steering that might occur unintentionally.

Do not ride on the platforms or ladder.

Do not look directly into the face of the ground speed sensor while in operation. Eye injury may occur from the low intensity microwave signal emitted.

Make sure that the decelerator pedal is covered with the decelerator pedal cover while roading.
