Oil Supply:
•
Daily before starting up check oil level in tank reservoir.
•
It is a good practice to constantly keep an eye on the tank level gauge, (this can be seen
from the tractor seat) as a pipe burst could empty the tank within minutes.
•
A pump or motor starved of oil will be damaged beyond repair.
•
Replace oil if signs of contamination occur (discolouration)
•
Use correct and suitable hydraulic oil
•
Contamination can be reduced by
:
•
Thoroughly cleaning around reservoir cap before removing
•
Using a clean container when replenishing the system
•
Regularly servicing the filtration system
.
•
Never allowing oil level to fall below the sight gauge
.
•
Daily inspect all hydraulic connections and fittings to be in good order. Any damage or
leaks must be rectified immediately; this is part of the daily maintenance and is your
responsibility, to maintain a long reliable working life.
•
When tightening fittings always use two spanners when necessary and do not over
tighten. If a fitting leaks it will need to be replaced
