Performance of Maintenance
Unless otherwise specified, maintenance should be performed with the machine parked on level ground, the blade resting on the ground, the transmission control lever in NEUTRAL, the parking brake engaged, the engine stopped, and the electrical disconnect switch in the OFF position.
Chips, or other debris, can fly off objects when struck. Make sure no one can be injured by flying debris before striking any object.
Pressure Air
Pressure air can cause personal injury. When using pressure air for cleaning, wear a protective face shield, protective clothing, and protective shoes. The maximum air pressure must be below 205 kPa (30 psi) for cleaning purposes.
Fluid Penetration
Always use a board or cardboard when checking for a leak. Escaping fluid under pressure, even a pin-hole size leak, can penetrate body tissue, causing serious injury, and possible death. If fluid is injected into your skin, it must be treated immediately by a doctor familiar with this type of injury.
Oils
Hot oil and components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or components to contact the skin. At operating temperature, the hydraulic tank is hot and can be under pressure.
TM5-2430-200-10
Remove the hydraulic tank fill cap only after the engine has been stopped, and the fill cap is cool enough to remove with your bare hand. Remove the hydraulic tank fill cap slowly, to relieve pressure. Relieve all pressure in air, oil, fuel, or cooling systems before any lines, fittings or related items are disconnected or removed.
Remove all flammable materials such as fuel, oil and other debris before they accumulate on the machine. Do not expose the machine to flames, burning brush, etc., if at all possible. Shields, which protect hot exhaust components from oil or fuel spray in the event of a line, tube or seal failure, must be installed correctly.
Fire Extinguisher
Have a fire extinguisher available and know how to use it. Inspect and have it serviced as recommended on its instruction plate. Make sure the fire extinguisher is mounted on the right side fender at the rear of the machine, in the location provided.
Batteries
Batteries give off flammable fumes which can explode. Do not smoke when observing the battery electrolyte levels. Electrolyte is an acid and can cause personal injury if it contacts the skin or eyes. Always wear protective glasses when working with batteries.
Ether
Ether is poisonous and flammable. Inhaling ether vapors, or the repeated contact of ether with skin, can cause personal injury. Use ether only in well-ventilated areas. Do not smoke while changing ether cylinders. Use ether with care to avoid fires. Do not store replacement ether cylinders in living areas or in the operator's compartment. Do not store ether cylinders in direct sunlight or at temperatures above 40C (102F). Discard the cylinders in a protective place. Do not puncture or burn the cylinders. Keep ether cylinders out of the reach of unauthorized personnel.
TM5-2430-200-10
Check all lines, tubes and hoses carefully. Do not use your bare hand to check for leaks. Use a board or cardboard to check for leaks. Refer to Safety, Fluid Penetration in this section for more details. Tighten all connections to the recommended torque. Replace if any of the following conditions are found: End fittings are damaged or leaking. Outer covering is chafed or cut, and the wire reinforcing is exposed. Outer covering is ballooning locally. There is evidence of kinking, or crushing, of the flexible part of the hose. Hose armor is embedded in the outer cover. End fittings are displaced. Make sure that all clamps, guards and heat shields are installed correctly, to prevent vibration, rubbing against other parts, and excessive heat during operation.
Inspect, and when necessary, clean and have repairs made to the steps and hand holds before mounting and dismounting. Face the machine when mounting and dismounting. Maintain a three-point contact (two feet and one hand or one foot and two hands) with the steps and hand holds. Never get on or off a moving machine. Never jump off the machine. Do not try to climb on or off the machine when carrying any tools or supplies. Use a hand line to pull any equipment up onto the platform. Do not use any controls as hand holds when entering or leaving the operator's station. Always raise and then use the handrail when on the walkways. Keep the walkways free of debris and oil. Clean away any ice or snow that has accumulated.

Lift switch cover (7) to access the switch. Start-Aid Switch (8)Move the switch up and hold it for three or more seconds, and then release it. Depending on the temperature of the intake air and engine coolant, a premeasured amount of ether is injected into the engine air intake manifold. When the start-aid system is functioning and the blackout light switch is in STOP LIGHT or SERVICE DRIVE, the start-aid indicator will turn on. NOTICE Use the ether sparingly. Excessive ether can cause piston and ring damage. Do not inject ether unless the engine is rotating. NOTE: The electronic control module (ECM) will allow the manual injection of ether if the intake air temperature is below 0C (32F), the engine coolant temperature is below 40C (104F), and the engine speed is below 1000 rpm. NOTE: The ECM automatically turns on the engine intake air heater to assist in starting the engine, depending on the air temperature and the engine coolant temperature. It is permissible to manually inject ether using the start-aid switch when the intake air heater is turned on.
Press switch (6) down to turn the engine heater ON. Press the switch again to raise the switch and turn the engine heater OFF. An internal light in the switch will illuminate to indicate that the heater is functioning. After the switch has been turned off, the light will continue to illuminate until the coolant heater has completed a three-minute shut-down procedure.
NOTICE Do not start the engine while the light in the engine coolant heater switch is on. The engine coolant heater requires three minutes to purge itself of diesel fumes. Damage to the engine coolant heater may result if the engine is started too soon after use.

Operating Techniques
! WARNING
Alert ground support personnel to stay a minimum of 50 ft from the deuce during dozing operations. Failure to comply may result in injury or death from flying rocks and debris. NOTE: The illustrations in this section are not specific to the DEUCE. However, the techniques described are valid operating techniques for the DEUCE.
! WARNING
Moderate breaking and reverse gear one (R-1) must be used when backing down any slope. Failure to do so could result in injury or death. Start at the dump end, and operate rearward. This is shown in Figure (A). This technique permits loading downhill, and the carrying of a load on a level surface. When working from the rear of the slot to the dump end, the previous technique is more efficient. This is shown in Figure (B). Uphill loading does not utilize the slot. This is shown in Figure (B). Level dozing through the entire slot is inefficient, due to the longer distance of the push.
Slot Dozing
NOTICE During slot dozing, side wall cave in may occur, potentially causing damage to the drive belt and suspension.. When material is trapped in a slot, larger loads can be carried in front of the bulldozer blade. Once the depth of the slot exceeds the blade height, production using this method will decreases. Decrease is due to excess spoil falling back over the blade.
When parallel slots are dug, the center should be removed from the rear. This procedure permits the operator to maintain a slot until the center is removed. The center should be maintained at a minimum width. The maximum width should be approximately one-third of the bulldozer blade.
NOTICE During earthmoving operations it is possible to collapse the recoil cylinder completely. To reduce the possibility of breaking track belts in this condition, a recoil alarm has been added to the machine to alert the operator to this condition. If the alert sounds, the operator should reverse direction and clear material from the undercarriage.

Machine on a Slope
Backfilling
! WARNING
Moderate breaking and reverse gear one (R-1) must be used when backing down any slope. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.
When possible, a slope should be worked vertically. Banks or slopes must be worked cautiously to avoid machine tipping. If the machine starts to sideslip on a slope, lighten the load and turn the machine downhill. When a slope is worked horizontally, start at the top of the slope and work downhill. Maintain a windrow of material on the low side of the machine to provide stability. Do not undercut the slope. Undercutting will increase the slope.
Backfill material should be pushed into a trench at a 90 angle to the trench. Do not twist the machine on a new backfill. When material is cut on a side slope, material may fall on the machine.
Roading Information
NOTE: Required permits must be obtained before the machine is operated on a public road. Check with local officials to determine if permits are required. Before the machine is driven, Army operators should perform the Operators Preventative Maintenance Checks and Services (OPMCS) as described in Appendix A. If a drive belt is loose, perform the procedure described in Operation Section, Machine Operation, Emergency Suspension Charging, and Emergency Drive Belt Tension Procedure in this manual. Use the SELF-DEPLOY mode when driving the machine on a public road. Refer to Operation Section, Machine Operation, Self-Deploy Mode in this manual. Place the blackout switch in the position which meets the requirements of the current situation. Refer to Operation Section, Monitoring Systems and Cab Features, Blackout Light Switch in this manual.
V-Ditching
To V-ditch, tilt the bulldozer blade to the desired slope. Position the corner of the bulldozer blade in the center of the ditch, and cut the ditch to the desired depth.

Towing Information
! WARNING
Personal injury or death could result when towing a disabled machine incorrectly. Be sure all necessary repairs and adjustments have been made before a machine that has been towed to a service area is put back into operation. Follow the recommendations below to properly perform the towing procedure. with a strength of at least 1.5 times the gross weight of the towing machine for a disabled machine stuck in the mud, or when towing on a grade. Do not use a chain for pulling. A chain link may break, causing possible injury. Use a wire rope cable with loop or ring ends. An observer (in a safe position) should stop the pulling procedure if the cable starts to break or unravel. Stop pulling whenever the pulling machine moves but the towed machine does not. Keep the tow angle to a minimum. Do not exceed a 30-degree angle from the straight-ahead position. NOTICE The winch cable is rated at 195 712 N (44,000 lb). This cable can be used for self-recovery but cannot be used to tow another DEUCE. Quick machine movement could overload the tow line, or bar, and cause it to break. Gradual and smooth machine movement works better. Normally, the towing machine should be as large as the disabled machine. Satisfy yourself that the towing machine has enough brake capacity, weight and power, to control both machines for the grade and distance involved. To provide sufficient control and braking when towing a disabled machine down a hill, a larger towing machine or additional machines connected to the front may be required. This prevents it from rolling uncontrollably. All different situational requirements cannot be given, as minimal towing machine capacity is required on smooth level surfaces, and increased capacity is required on inclines or poor surface conditions. Any towed machine, when loaded onto a trailer, must be equipped with its own brake system which is operable from the operators compartment.
NOTICE This machine is equipped with internally, springapplied parking brakes. The parking brakes must be hydraulically released before the machine can be towed. Also, the final drives must be disabled before the machine is towed. Failure to release the parking brake and/or disable the final drives before the machine is towed can damage the machine. Notify Unit Maintenance to perform these procedures if the machine must be towed. NOTE: This information is not authorization for the operator to maintain additional tools or to perform maintenance tasks. These towing instructions are for moving a disabled machine a short distance, at low speed (no faster than 2 kph [1.2 mph]) to a convenient location for repair. These instructions are for emergencies only. Always haul a disabled machine if long distance moving is required. Shielding must be provided on the towing machine to protect the operator if the tow line, or bar, should break. The rear window screen on the DEUCE must be down when the machine is towing or being towed. Do not allow an operator on the machine being towed since it is not possible to control the steering and braking. Before towing, make sure the tow line, or bar, is in good condition and has enough strength for the towing situation involved. Use a towing line, or bar,
When towing the machine, use towing brackets (1) at the rear of the machine, on both sides of the winch.

Glycol
Engine coolant glycol is normally either ethylene or propylene. Glycol raises the boiling point of water to help prevent boil-over, provides freeze protection, helps prevent water-pump cavitation, and reduces cylinder liner pitting. NOTICE For ambient temperatures requiring lower freeze protection (higher than 50 percent glycol), use ethylene glycol. do not use propylene glycol. Proper freeze and boil protection requires the proper ratio of glycol and acceptable water. Use the following charts to determine glycol concentrations to mix with acceptable water.
Additives
Additives must be included in all coolant mixtures. Additives help prevent the formation of rust, scale, and mineral deposits. Additives protect metals from corrosion, prevent liner cavitation, and contain antifoaming agents. NOTICE MIL-A-53009 Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA) is not acceptable for use in the engine on this machine.
Freeze Protection -15C (-5F) CH6052 -24C (-11F) -37C (-35F) -57C (-71F)

Coolant Recommendations
PreferredCaterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) or a commercial ELC that meets the Caterpillar specification (EC-1). AcceptableA Caterpillar Diesel Engine Antifreeze/Coolant (DEAC) or a commercial heavy-duty coolant/antifreeze that meets ASTM D4985, ASTM D5345, or MIL-A-46153 specifications. UnacceptableAny high silicate coolant that is classified as meeting ASTM D3306. NOTICE Most commercial engine coolant/antifreeze is formulated for gasoline engine applications and have a high silicate content. High silicates are conducive to cylinder liner cavitation and corrosion. Caterpillar does not recommend high silicate coolant/antifreeze.
NOTICE Never add coolant to an overheated engine; allow the engine to cool first. Do not add coolant too quickly. Filling the cooling system at over 19 L (5 U.S. gal) per minute can create air pockets in the cooling system. Engine damage can result. NOTE: MIL-A-4615 Antifreeze can be mixed with the Caterpillar ELC supplied in the DEUCE. When filling or adding coolant to the system, premix the coolant solution prior to pouring it into the cooling system. Pure, undiluted glycol will freeze at 23C (-0F). Use a coolant solution in a range which will provide protection to the lowest expected outside (ambient) temperature and provide the required boilover protection.
TM5-2430-200-10
Fuel Specifications
Fuel Recommendations
NOTICE Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day of operation to remove moist air and prevent condensation. Maintain a constant level in the tank (near the top) to avoid drawing moisture into the tank as the level decreases. Do not fill the tank to the top. Fuel expands as it warms, and may overflow. Do not fill fuel filters with fuel before installing them. Contaminated fuel causes accelerated wear to fuel system parts. Use only the fuel recommended in this section of this manual. Fuel grades recommended for use in Caterpillar diesel engines are: No.2-D diesel fuel with low sulfur (0.05 percent maximum), or regular sulfur (0.5 percent maximum). No.1 grades are acceptable. The table lists worldwide fuel standards which meet Caterpillar requirements.

Lubricant Specifications
Engine Lubricant Specifications Diesel Engine Oils
The performance of commercial diesel engine oils is based on API categories. These API categories are developed to provide commercial lubricants for a wide variety of diesel engines that operate at various conditions. If Caterpillar DEO (multi-grade) is not used, use only the following commercial oils: Preferred API CG-4 Allowed API CF-4 Oils which meet specification MIL-L-2104 are acceptable for use in the engine on this vehicle. These oils can be mixed with the preferred and allowed oils described above. Caterpillar does not currently offer multigrade oils for use in transmissions. Multigrade oils which use high molecular weight polymers as viscosity index improvers lose their viscosity effectiveness (permanent and temporary shear), and are therefore not recommended for transmission and drive train compartments. The Caterpillar TO-4 specification includes a test for multigrade oil shear stability; oils that meet this specification may be available in the future.
Lubricating Grease
The National Lubricating Grease Institute (NLGI) classifies grease, based on ASTM D217-68 Worked Penetration characteristics. Grease characteristics are given a defined consistency number. Molybdenum Grease: NLGI No. 2 Grade contains three percent molybdenum disulfide to five percent molybdenum disulfide. This grease is a multipurpose grease with an operating temperature range from -28C to 149C (-18F to 300F). Water and Temperature Resistant Grease: NLGI No. 2 Grade is highly resistant to water. This grease meets the ASTM D-1264 Water Washout Test requirement and resists low temperatures and high temperatures. This grease has a starting torque at -40C (-40F) and is not fluid at 316C (600F).
Caterpillar Transmission/Drive Train Oil (TDTO) (TO-4)Hydraulic System, Power Train, Offset Arms, Rear Idlers, Midrollers
Caterpillar TDTO TO-4 is balanced to give maximum frictional material life in power shift transmissions. TO4 oil specifications include frictional and gear wear requirements. TO-4 oil is offered in several viscosity grades, including SAE 50, for maximum component life at high ambient temperatures and heavy duty cycles. NOTICE TO-4 is formulated for transmissions and drive trains only. Using TO-4 in an engine would result in shortened engine life. Do not use engine oils for lubricating transmissions or drive trains. Failure to follow this recommendation can cause shortened transmission life due to material incompatibility and inadequate frictional requirements for disk materials. NOTE: Use of a single viscosity grade MIL-L-2140 oil in the Hydraulic System, Power Train is acceptable. Single viscosity oils which meet MIL-L-2104 can be mixed with the Caterpillar TDTO oils
