Air Filter Compartment. The air filter
features a double-element construction
for superior cleaning efficiency.
When the air cleaner plugs, a warning
is displayed on the monitor screen inside
the cab.
Ground Level Service. The design and
layout of the 329D was made with the
service technician in mind. Many service
locations are easily accessible at ground
level allowing critical maintenance to
get done quickly and efficiently.
Pump Compartment. A service door on
the right side of the upper structure
allows ground-level access to the pump
and pilot filter.

filter, a capsule filter, is situated outside
the hydraulic tank. This filter prevents
contaminants from entering the system
when hydraulic oil is changed and keeps
the operation clean.

is equipped with S•O•S sampling ports
and hydraulic test ports for the hydraulic
system, engine oil, and for coolant. A test
connection for the Electronic Technician
(ET) service tool is located behind the cab.

top of storage box and upper structure
to prevent slipping during maintenance.
Fan Guard. Engine radiator fan is
completely enclosed by fine wire mesh,
reducing the risk of an accident.

greasing block on the boom delivers grease
to hard-to-reach locations on the front.
Radiator Compartment. The left rear
service door allows easy access to the
engine radiator, oil cooler and air-to-air
aftercooler. Reserve tank and drain cock
are attached to the radiator for simplified
