Quick Tip Video: Reset Service Interval on Cat^® D Series Skid Steer Loaders

The regular servicing of skid steer loaders and other quality Caterpillar^® construction equipment is an integral part of any proactive maintenance plan. It serves both to protect your investment and maximize your uptime. As part of the all-new Cat D Series Skid Steer Loader redesign, the machine’s onboard computer has been packed with the most cutting-edge technology to help make keeping up with preventative maintenance easier than ever before.

Now, when it’s time for a particular maintenance service, a reminder light comes on to alert the operator. In the following quick tip video, a representative from Caterpillar explains how to reset the built-in service interval light, since it’s up to the operator to do this after the appropriate service has been completed.

Hey, I’m Colin and I’m here today to show you how to reset your service needed reminder light on your Cat D Series Skid Steer Loader.

To reset this reminder, simply access the service maintenance interval screen by pressing the button directly below the gear icon.

Using the buttons below the up and down arrows, highlight the compartment that was serviced and hit the reset button.
