                           MACHINE SERIAL NUMBER
          The machine serial number is stamped on the serial number plate which is
          located at the front of the machine on the right side of the operator’s cab
          platform. The serial number should always be furnished when ordering parts
          for the machine or when corresponding with the distributor or factory
          concerning the machine. Providing the serial number is the only way of
          ensuring the correct parts and/or information can be furnished.

          In the event the serial plate is not readable a number is stamped on the
          upper revolving frame which can be used to identify the machine. The
          number is stamped just below the boom and between the boom hoist
          cylinder mounting lugs.

D. When the 8th bar on the water temperature gauge is
   displayed, the message “OVER HEAT” appears on
   the instrument panel control screen (1) and the
