HYDRAULIC PUMP/OIL RESERVOIR
• Check oil reservoir level and oil condition. (Add
specific type oil if low)
• Change hydraulic oil filter and hydraulic oil
according to maintenance schedule.
• Ensure there are no oil leaks and fitting are
properly connected
• Inspect overall condition of hydraulic pump.
• Inspect pump drive shaft.
Check the fluid level in the Hydraulic Tank on the
Tractor, and add oil if required. As the air has been forced out of the Cylinders and Hoses, it goes into the
Hydraulic Tank and reduces the volume of oil. Maintain the oil level within the sight gauge located on the side
of the reservoir. Never fill the tank above the sight gauge to allow for the expansion of the oil. The tank
maintains pressure after the mower has been run.
OPS-B 0024_J
Attention: Oil Filler Cap is also the Pressure Relief Cap.
Remove cap slowly to relieve pressure before removing cap completely. Stay clear to pre-
vent being scalded with hot oil that may spray out of the tank that is still pressurized and may
cause serious injury to eyes, face, and exposed skin.
(Ops-0001-MISC)
Avoid contact with hot surfaces including hydraulic oil tanks, pumps, motors, valves and
hose connections. Relieve hydraulic pressure before performing maintenance or repairs.
Use gloves and eye protection when servicing hot components. Contact with a hot surface
or fluid can cause serious injury from burns or scalding.
