No its a cd from cat from when i bought mine new from finning.

They are easy to service. Keep an eye on the rads blocking, they look fine from outside but clog up in between them.

Cheers do you mean fins clogg externally or should I flush cooling system through?

You won’t need the manual just to service them mate. Get the filters and oil and crack on. Don’t forget the final drives.

Guessing it’s a pair of rads, one for oil and one for water and they get clogged in between. Just unbolt the front one and pull it forward a bit so you can blow both through individually

Not worried about the service just something I like to have for the future. First Digger for me just for some work on property.

Its the gap between the 2 rads that can bung up. Once you get the side panel off you will be able to see what i mean.

The 301.5 is a very arse heavy machine so just bare it in mind when on slopes.

They are a good little machine with plenty of power.

If you didnt know the round button on the floor if for 2 speed tracking. Sometimes they bung up with mud.

Cheers didn’t know that only got it delivered yesterday so haven't played with it yet.

What oil does the final drive take?
