Quality:
Depends on the source scan quality, but typically professional reproduction quality for manual sales.
Binding:
Not applicable for PDF format, but implies a digital document.
Paper:
Not applicable for PDF format.
Make Model:
Likely Volvo BM or a contracted engine manufacturer (e.g., Perkins, Deutz, or internal Volvo engine) specific to the Typ 350 / H10 era. Exact engine model is not provided in the product information.
Configuration:
Likely a 4-cylinder diesel engine, common for loaders of this size and era.
Cooling System:
Liquid-cooled (water-cooled).
Fuel System:
Direct injection diesel fuel system.
Displacement:
Estimated to be in the range of 3.0 to 4.5 liters, typical for loaders of this class.
Horsepower:
Typically in the 50-70 HP range for loaders of this size, though exact figures would be in the manual.
Torque:
Specific torque figures would be detailed in the manual, crucial for load-bearing performance.
Engine Oil Type:
Typically API CD or CE rated diesel engine oil, viscosity grade like SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30 depending on ambient temperature. Specific recommendations in the manual.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze/coolant with appropriate corrosion inhibitors for heavy-duty diesel engines. Specific mixture ratio and type would be in the manual.
Type:
Likely a powershift transmission or a hydrostatic transmission for operational ease and variable speed control. Manual indicates a 'lastmaskin' (loader), suggesting powershift for forward/reverse selection and speed changes.
Gearing:
Multi-speed forward and reverse gears, allowing for efficient material handling and travel.
Operation:
Designed for smooth engagement and efficient power transfer to the drive axles.
Transmission Fluid:
Specialized transmission fluid (e.g., UTF - Universal Tractor Transmission fluid, or a specific automatic transmission fluid (ATF) / powershift oil). Specific part number and type are critical and will be listed in the manual.
Length:
Not specified, but typically around 4-5 meters for a compact loader of this era.
Width:
Not specified, but typically around 1.5-2.0 meters (bucket width dependent).
Height:
Not specified, but likely around 2.5-3.0 meters (to top of cab/ROPS).
Operating Weight:
Likely in the 3,000 - 5,000 kg range.
Load Capacity:
Rated operating capacity would be specified in the manual, typically around 800-1200 kg.
Roll Over Protection:
Likely equipped with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and possibly a Falling-Object Protective Structure (FOPS), standard for construction equipment.
Seatbelt:
Standard safety belt.
Warning Lights:
Operation of hazard lights, turn signals, and potentially a beacon.
Guards:
Protective guards on moving parts (e.g., driveshafts, fan).
Operator Station:
Ergonomically designed controls with safety interlocks.
Daily Checks:
Engine oil level, coolant level, hydraulic fluid level, tire pressure, visual inspection for leaks and damage, operation of controls and lights.
50 Hour Service:
Lubrication of pivot points, drive shaft U-joints, check/replace engine oil filter (depending on usage), check air filter restriction indicator.
250 Hour Service:
Engine oil change, engine oil filter replacement, fuel filter replacement, air filter replacement, hydraulic filter replacement, transmission oil level check, differential oil level check, grease all chassis points.
500 Hour Service:
Coolant flush and refill, detailed inspection of hydraulic hoses and connections, inspection of brake system, inspection of engine belts and hoses.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Typically ISO VG 46 hydraulic oil or a universal tractor transmission fluid (UTTF) suitable for operating temperatures. Manual will specify grade and capacity.
Gear Oil Type:
GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil for axles and potentially the transmission, depending on type. Manual will specify viscosity and specifications.
Common Wear Items:
Hydraulic hoses and seals, pivot pins and bushings, brake components, engine belts and filters, starter motor, alternator.
Electrical Connections:
Corrosion or looseness in electrical connectors due to vibration and environmental exposure.
Hydraulic Performance:
