This LUCA excavator pre-start check and test template helps operators verify machine readiness before use. It covers critical safety components such as fire suppression, emergency exits, alarms, hose burst protection, and isolation points; fluid levels for engine, swing drive, hydraulics, and coolant; conditional items including exhaust, cabin condition, booms and pins, frame cracks, wiring protection, tracks and final drives, ground engaging tools, signage and SWL, belts, EMS, lifting gear, and quick hitch; and operational checks for functions, lights and beacons, air conditioning, horn, and travel. The template prompts operators to record machine hours, perform a 360-degree walk-around, and sign off. Intended as a general example only; verify suitability for your site and jurisdiction.
