Oil Requirements
Tank
The machine is delivered from the factory without oil. Fill the reservoir with a light hydraulic oil as
recommended in the chart until the oil level is approximately 2” below the top of the tank. The total capacity is
approximately 23 liters (5 gallons). Do not overfill.
For ease of filling when large quantities are involved the strainer basket can be prised from its housing. If filling
in this manner, make sure that new oil is used and that the area around filler and any filling utensils are clean.
