Pre-operation Inspection
Fundamentals
It is the responsibility of the operator to perform a
pre-operation inspection and routine maintenance.
The pre-operation inspection is a visual inspection
performed by the operator prior to each work shift.
The inspection is designed to discover if anything
is apparently wrong with a machine before the
operator performs the function tests.
The pre-operation inspection also serves to
determine if routine maintenance procedures are
required. Only routine maintenance items specified
in this manual may be performed by the operator.
Refer to the list on the next page and check each
of the items.
If damage or any unauthorized variation from
factory delivered condition is discovered, the
machine must be tagged and removed from
service.
Repairs to the machine may only be made by a
qualified service technician, according to the
manufacturer’s specifications. After repairs are
completed, the operator must perform a
pre-operation inspection again before going on to
the function tests.
Scheduled maintenance inspections shall be
performed by qualified service technicians,
according to the manufacturer’s specifications and
the requirements listed in the responsibilities
manual.

Workplace Inspection
Do Not Operate Unless:
You learn and practice the principles of safe
machine operation contained in this operator’s
manual.
1 Avoid hazardous situations.
2 Always perform a pre-operation inspection.
3 Always perform function tests prior to use.
4 Inspect the workplace.
Fundamentals
The workplace inspection helps the operator
determine if the workplace is suitable for safe
machine operation. It should be performed by the
operator prior to moving the machine to the
workplace.
It is the operator’s responsibility to read and
remember the workplace hazards, then watch for
and avoid them while moving, setting up and
operating the machine.
Know and understand the workplace
inspection before going on to the next
section.
5 Only use the machine as it was intended.

It is the operator’s responsibility to follow all the
safety rules and instructions in the operator’s,
safety and responsibilities manuals.
Only trained and authorized personnel should be

operator is expected to use a machine at different
times in the same work shift, they must all be
qualified operators and are all expected to follow
all safety rules and instructions in the operator’s,
safety and responsibilities manuals. That means
every new operator should perform a pre-operation

Securing to Truck or Trailer for
Transit
Make sure the machine is shut down according to
the Shutdown of Tower procedure in the Operating
Instructions section.
Observe and Obey:
Terex Corporation provides this securement
information as a recommendation. Drivers are
solely responsible for making sure machines
are properly secured and the correct trailer is
selected pursuant to US Department of
Transportation regulations, other localized
regulations, and their company policy.
Terex customers needing to containerize any
Terex product should source a qualified freight
forwarder with expertise in preparing, loading
and securing construction and lifting
equipment for international shipment.
The transport vehicle must be parked on a
level surface.
The transport vehicle must be secured to
prevent rolling while the machine is being
loaded.
Be sure the vehicle capacity, loading surfaces
and chains or straps are sufficient to withstand
the machine weight. See the serial label for the
machine weight.
Common sense and planning must be applied
to control the movement of the machine when
lifting it with a crane or forklift.
1 Deploy the outriggers and level the machine.
2 Check the bubble level on the front of the
machine to make sure the machine is level.
3 Turn the jockey wheel handle to raise the
jockey wheel just off ground.

crane or a fork lift.
10 If using a crane, refer to Lifting the Machine
With a Crane procedure in the Transport
section.
11 If using a fork lift:
AL6-6000: use the fork pockets below the rear

instructions. When one or more of the symbols
appear at the beginning of a maintenance
procedure, it conveys the meaning below.
Maintaining the proper engine oil level is essential
to good engine performance and service life.
Operating the machine with an improper oil level
can damage engine components.
Note: Check the oil level with the engine off.

Check the Engine Coolant Level
Maintaining the engine coolant at the proper level
is essential to engine service life. Improper coolant
level will affect the engine’s cooling capability and
damage engine components. Daily checks will
allow the inspector to identify changes in coolant
level that might indicate cooling system problems.
Burn hazard. Beware of hot engine parts and
coolant. Contact with hot engine parts and/or
coolant may cause severe burns.
Note: Do not remove the radiator cap.
1 Check the fluid level in the coolant recovery
tank. Add fluid as needed.
Result: The fluid level should be at the FULL
mark.
Refer to Kubota Operator's Manual 97897-01090.
Check the Batteries
Proper battery condition is essential to good
machine performance and operational safety.
Improper fluid levels or damaged cables and
connections can result in component damage and
hazardous conditions.

Maintenance
Check the Tire Pressure
Bodily injury hazard. An over-inflated tire can
explode and may cause death or serious
injury.
Collision hazard. An excessively worn tire can
cause poor handling and continued use could
result in tire failure.
Tip-over hazard. Do not use temporary flat tire
repair products.
Maintaining the tires and wheels in good condition
is essential to safe operation and good
performance. Tire and/or wheel failure could result
in a machine tip-over. Component damage may
also result if problems are not discovered and
repaired in a timely fashion.
1 Check the tire surface and sidewalls for cuts,
cracks, punctures and uneven or excessive
tread wear. Replace the tire if uneven or
excessive tread wear is found.
2 Check each wheel for damage, bends and
cracks. Replace the wheel if any damage is
found.
