NOTE: At the 1000 Hour Interval Oil Change also inspect the brake disc
wear. Refer to “Brake Disc Inspection” on page 134 and follow the inspec-
tion procedure. After brake disc inspection is complete, reassemble the

tion, engage the parking brake switch and shut off the engine.

and the axle level plugs (2).
