Part of the JCB Operator Manuals.
Every daily check, safety protocol, and cab control for your excavator is broken down in this 230-page JCB JS140, JS205, JS215 operator manual PDF (OEM #9831/7950). You get a complete breakdown of the operator station, detailed attachment guidelines for rockbreakers and crushers, and a full section of step-by-step daily maintenance procedures. Open to the technical data chapters to find complete fluid capacities, fault-finding charts for the hydraulic pump, and exact lubrication schedules to keep your equipment running strong. Swap the hydraulic oil return filter every 500 hours, and make sure the lower track roller bolts are locked down to exactly 288 N·m during your walk-around inspections. Prevent unnecessary wear and tear on your undercarriage and hydraulics. Grab this bookmarked download, open it on your tablet right in the cab, and get back to moving dirt.
