I created this thread to hopefully discuss komatsu dozers, in order to help people like myself that have a komatsu dozer and have questions about them.

One is the transmission and the other is the clutch.
To tighten the tracks: take off the access plate on the track cover, put your grease gun on the zerk and pump to tighten the tracks. Go slow, it doesn't take very much.
I think that the book says 30w oil in the trans, finals and transfer case (D21), 10W in the clutch and hydraulic tank.
Dipstick locations.
Final drive oil level.
Track adjustment.
Fluid specfications..
Hope this helps some. Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
It's under the rectangular black cover on the left side of the dash panel...at least that's where it is on a -6...you have a -5, right?A:is there a fuse box and where is it
Look at the long steel cover that covers the side of the track frame. There's a smaller cover built into that big piece of steel. The zerk is under there.B:does anybody have an colored picture of the grease fitting area where you tighten the tracks.
I think that uses a large allen wrench...maybe 12mm or 14mm? You can get one at NAPA. They're used to remove differential and transmission plugs on foreign cars.C:how do i get the plugs out so that i check out the fluid level of the final drive on the back of the dozer.
