Usage:

  • Check the magnetic plugs.

  • Repeat step 1 through step 3 for each wheel.

    All the wheels have a magnetic plug. The magnetic plugs will attract metal from the oil. A bearing failure is indicated by an increased amount of metal on the magnetic plug.

    If any abnormal particles are found, consult your Cat dealer.

    After you correct a failure that produces debris, clean the compartments before adding any oil.
