3.31 CHECKING THE HGS FLUID LEVEL
Hydraulic fluid is toxic and can have
a damaging effect on your health. It
is therefore important to avoid
inhalation and direct contact.
As hydraulic fluid is also a
corrosive fluid, it may damage the
paintwork of the vehicle. Avoid any
contact between hydraulic fluid and
paintwork.
Always use new and clean hydraulic
fluid which has been kept in a
sealed container that meets the
specifications. Hydraulic fluid which
has absorbed water (from the
ambient air) may have an adverse
effect on the operation of hydraulic
systems.
When topping up oil, avoid coming
into contact with mineral oil (clean
hands, clean funnel etc.).
Mineral oil will damage the seals in
the system.
1. Check whether the fluid level is between the
upper and lower marks when the cab is
tilted back.
