As the title states, I bought a 2012 Cat 242b3 with 720 hours on the meter. It was an expensive purchase and I know it was a rental machine at one point in its career. I am looking to do as much general maintenance myself to try and save some money. Just wondering what kinds of things I may be missing in my list below: 1. Clean / replace air filter 2. Change motor oil and oil filter 3. Replace fuel filter 4. Grease all pivot points (plan to do this every 5-10 hours) The machine had a hydraulic leak when I bought it so the Hydro fluid has pretty much all been replaced with new fluid. Any other things that I should be paying attention to or servicing? Thanks in advance guys!
