ofequivalent grade or strength.
3. Follow the recommendations of the tractor manufacturer in regards to the quantity of oil used.
4. Check oil level frequently to ensure the system is full.
5. When making an oil check, be sure lift cylinders are retracted.
6. Before operating the loader, particularly if the loader is left standing for any length of time,
check the hydraulic system and oil level.
7. When installing hydraulics, follow the circuit carefully. See hydraulic hook-up section and make
sure the hoses do not contact any hot manifolds or sharp edges on tractor. After assembly,
raise the loader slowly and check to make sure that the hoses do not bind in all positions.
