Loader maintenance
1. Cleaning of the machine
Cleanliness of the loader is not only a question of
outer appearance. All surfaces, painted and others,
will stay in better condition when they are cleaned
regularly. A dirty machine will run hotter and will
collect more dirt into the air cleaner, which may
shorten the engine life.
Pay special attention to the cleanliness of the engine,
the engine compartment, the radiators, the hydraulic
pump compartment, hydraulic quick couplings and
the oil tank cover.
The outer surfaces of the loader can be carefully
washed with a pressure washer. However, avoid
direct spraying on hydraulic components (hoses,
cylinders), any electric component, decals, and the
radiators.
Clean cab interior with appropriate mild detergent
and cleaning supplies.
After washing grease all greasing points.
The loader is equipped with a
hydraulic oil cooler, which is located
at the rear of the loader, behind the
driver's seat. Make sure to clean the
oil cooler cell with compressed air
every time you are servicing the
loader - and even more frequently if
the loader is being used in dusty
conditions.
2. Greasing of the machine
Greasing of pivot points is very important in order to
avoid wear. Most of the greasing points are on the
loader boom. The following pictures show the
location of grease nipples.
