main disconnect switch, hood tilt switch, and the jump start

Engine Access
The K Series™ retains the Cat sloped “one-piece” tilting hood,
which has become one of our brand’s hallmarks and provides
industry-leading access to the engine, Cat Clean Emissions
Module (CEM) and other components but with fresh new
styling clearly distinct from the H Series. New to the loaders
is a rear clamshell hood design that allows quick access to
the engine oil dipstick and ll, fuel ll port, and cooler cores.
Cooling System
The cooling system is readily accessible for clean out and
maintenance. With six cooling ns per inch and a perforated
grill, most airborne debris entering the system passes through
the cooler cores. The cooler cores swing out providing easy
access for cleaning; an option variable pitch fan is available
to automatically purge the cooler cores by periodically
reversing the air ow.
Hydraulic Service Center
The hydraulic components are all conveniently located
behind the hinged right side access ladder at a new single
ground level service center improving safety and reducing
service time. Accessible from the service center are the
transmission and hydraulic oil lters, brake accumulators,
pressure test ports, etc.
