HYDRAULIC SERVICE CENTER.
Transmission oil and hydraulic filters are
located in the Hydraulic Service Center,
behind the hinged, right-side access
ladder. The hydraulic oil tank can be
drained from this location using the
access port.

Hydraulic filter change interval at
500 hours

Transmission filter change interval
at 1,000 hours

ELECTRIC SERVICE CENTER. Batteries,
relay panel and an optional tool box are
conveniently located below the left-side
access platform. The engine shutdown
switch is housed with the relay panel.
A compartment integrated into the access
platform contains the hood tilt actuation
switch, master switch and jump-start
receptacle.

GROUND LEVEL GREASE POINTS.
Grease fittings are grouped on the right
side of the machine in two convenient
locations – in a service compartment just
below the right-side service platform, and
a bank located just off the non-engine end
frame. These locations facilitate easy
lubrication of vital components located
throughout the machine.

AUTOLUBE. Reduce time spent on daily
maintenance and downtime for unplanned
repairs due to inadequate greasing with
the optional Caterpillar Automatic
Lubrication System. Precise lubrication
of pins and bushings at specific intervals
improves component wear and reduces
ground contamination from excessive
greasing.

S•O•S SERVICES. Sampling valves on
the 966H allow quick access to engine,
transmission and hydraulic oils for S•O•S
analysis. Oil change intervals and other
services can be optimized according to
your work schedule, reducing downtime
and managing expenses.

REMOTE PRESSURE TAPS. Pressure taps
for the steering and hydraulic systems,
transmission (optional) and brakes are
grouped behind an access panel just
below the right-side service platform.

BRAKE WEAR INDICATORS. Axles are
equipped with standard brake wear
indicators, allowing a technician to easily
determine when it is necessary to service
the brakes.

SIGHT GAUGES. Well-protected, yet easily
visible sight gauges for the transmission,
hydraulic oil and radiator coolant allow
easy daily checks while reducing the risk
of contaminants entering the systems.
