Hydraulic System.
The Hydraulic System is filled at the factory with PETRO-
CAN HYDREX XV - All Season Hydraulic Oil , a
premium performance, long life, anti–wear hydraulic fluid.
The Hydraulic Oil Tank contains approximately 120
gallons (imp) of hydraulic oil.
IMPORTANT
Use only recommended oils. Failure to do so will
result in damage to the hydraulic system
If HYDREX XV is not available, some compatible oils
are shown in the list opposite.
The Hydraulic Pumps: ‘
P1 ’-Drive, ‘ P2 ’-Conveyor/Pallet,
and ‘ P3 ’ – Arm, are engine driven.
The Pump ‘
P1 ’ supplies oil to the Drive Motors via the
Anti- Slip Valves. See Hydraulic Schematics. See P4-08
See P4-04 for pressure check/adjust of Drive Pump.
Pump ‘
P2 ’ sends oil to the 8 and 6 Bank Control
Valves. See Hydraulic Schematics. See P4-06/07
Pump ‘
P3 ’. Sends oil to the 7-Bank Control Valves for the
Arm. See Hydraulics Schematics. See P4-09.
Two sets of In-line Filters a Spin-On Filter for the Arm
and a Charge Pressure Filter on Pump ‘
P1 ’, ensure the
hydraulic oil is kept free of contaminants.
See service procedures on pages 4-02.
IMPORTANT
In addition to the oil level ‘Sight Gauge’ a float will detect
low oil level, a warning will ‘flash’ on the cab display and
a ‘buzzer’ will sound.
Stop operation immediately and
investigate for oil leaks.
Refer to Section six, page 6-13, for oil change
schedule.
The Oil Cooler Fan engages automatically when the oil
reaches a preset temperature, sensed by a sending unit
in the oil tank. Oil temperature is shown on the Cab
Display - Controller ‘
A ’. The Fan reverses periodically to
blow debris off the Cooler.
IMPORTANT
To prevent serious damage to the Hydraulic System do
not allow water, dirt, or contaminants to enter the system,
particularly if working on the hydraulic tank.
When working on/repairing hydraulic components
thoroughly clean around the area to be worked on.
Cap and plug all broken connections.
NOTE
To empty the Hydraulic Oil Tank it is recommended
that a suction pump is used to remove the oil through the
filler opening. Completely drain the tank by removing the
magnetic drain plug.
