John Deere 310L EP Operator's Manual

The recommended maintenance intervals include daily checks, 250-hour lubrication, 500-hour engine oil and filter changes, and 1,000-hour hydraulic oil changes. Always refer to the operator's manual for detailed schedules.
Check for leaks, ensure hydraulic fluid levels are correct, inspect hoses and connections for damage, and verify that the hydraulic filter is clean. If issues persist, consult a certified technician.
Use John Deere Plus-50 II engine oil or an equivalent oil that meets API CJ-4, CI-4, or CH-4 specifications for optimal performance.
To reset the service interval reminder, navigate to the service menu on the machine's digital display, select the interval to reset, and follow the on-screen instructions.
Check the battery charge and connections, ensure the fuel level is sufficient, inspect the starter motor and solenoid, and verify that the safety interlock system is engaged.
Regular maintenance, such as keeping filters clean, ensuring proper tire inflation, and using the correct engine oil, can help improve fuel efficiency. Additionally, operate the machine at optimal RPMs and avoid unnecessary idling.
Common electrical issues include blown fuses, corroded connections, and faulty relays. Inspect and replace fuses as necessary, clean and secure electrical connections, and test relays for proper function.
The air filter should be inspected every 250 hours and replaced as needed, or more frequently if operating in dusty conditions.
Calibrating the transmission involves using the loader’s onboard diagnostics system. Follow the calibration procedure outlined in the operator's manual, ensuring the machine is on a level surface and the hydraulic oil is at operating temperature.
Regular maintenance, timely repairs, proper operation, and using quality fluids and parts can extend the lifespan of your loader. Additionally, storing the machine in a covered area can prevent weather-related wear.
