Hydraulic Oil & Strainer Filter
The hydraulic oil and the strainer filter located inside the hydraulic tank must be
changed at regular intervals in accordance with the maintenance schedule.
To change the hydraulic oil and strainer filter:
1. Operate the mast continuously to warm
up the hydraulic oil. This will help the oil
to flow.
2. Park the truck in a designated service
area.
3. Lower the mast fully and tilt the mast
fully forward.
4. Switch off the engine, remove the key
from the ignition and wait until the
hydraulic tank is cool enough to touch
before proceeding.
5. Open the bonnet from the right hand
side of the truck to gain access to the
hydraulic tank filler.
6. Unscrew and remove the filler cap (
A
).
7. Position suitable containers for collecting the used oil next to the truck.
Hydraulic Tank Capacity: 35L / 37qt
8. Use a fluid extractor to transfer the used oil from the hydraulic tank into the
collection container(s). Remove the strainer from the filer neck and feed the
suction pipe of the fluid extractor into the tank through the filler neck until it
reaches the bottom of the tank.
9. Unbolt and remove the panel (
B
) from the left hand side of the hydraulic tank.
10. Reach inside the tank then unscrew and remove the used strainer filter (
C
)
(dispose of the used filter in accordance with local environmental regulations).
11. Extract any remaining oil and clean the bottom of the hydraulic tank through the
opening.
