Description:
Serial Number Location:
For Case 9010B Excavators (produced from approximately 1997 to 2002), the serial number plate is mounted on the right side of the upper carriage, just below the operator's cab, or on the front chassis near the boom base. Always verify the serial number when ordering parts—hydraulics, cab design, and electronics differ from the earlier 9010 model.

Common Issues & Fixes
Hydraulic Pump Noise or Delay: Check for low oil or clogged filters—replace hydraulic filters and bleed system.
Travel Motor Sluggishness: Worn charge pump seals or motor bypass—inspect final drive oil and rebuild drive motor if necessary.
Swing Bearing Looseness or Noise: Grease daily and torque swing bearing bolts—replace bearing if excessive play exists.
Boom or Stick Drift: Caused by internal seal failure—repack cylinders and inspect spool valve function.
Electrical Start Failure: Check main cab ground, relays, and battery leads—clean terminals and test ignition switch.
Hydraulic Overheating: Often caused by restricted coolers—flush radiator and clean debris from the hydraulic cooler fins.
