The IC-200 is factory filled with hydraulic oil for the -15° to 110°F (-26° to 43°C) range. If sig-
nificant portions of time are spent operating below 20°F (-7°C) or above 100°F (43°C), the oil
should be replaced with an extreme temperature oil.
The oils shown are compatible with and may be combined with SAE 10W or SAE 20W-20 mo-
tor oil if it is necessary to add oil between changes and the recommended oils are not availa-
ble. These motor oils are not suitable substitutes when changing hydraulic oil because t hey
lack certain additives that are needed for hydraulic system use.
C A U T I O N
Never add kerosene or other "thinners" to hydraulic oil. These fluids have low aniline
points and consequently will cause rapid deterioration of certain packings and seals in
the hydraulic system.
C A U T I O N
Serious damage to the pump will result if it is run with the shutoff valve closed or with
insufficient oil level in the reservoir.
Observe the operation of the machine. If the oil is too cold, the machine will be sluggish and
should be warmed up further to prevent damage before sustained hard work is attempted. If
the oil is too hot, leakage will increase, pump efficiency will go down, and moving parts will not
be properly lubricated. If operating temperature is excessive, rapid deterioration of the oil will
result and m oving parts and seals w ill wear more quickly. The cause of the excess heat
should be determined and corrected. A possible indicat ion of excessive oil temperature is a
control valve lever that becomes hard to operate or sticks instead of returning to neutral.
