8.7.5. Checking the oil tank level

1.

Place the loader and stabiliser legs in the transport
position.

2.

Place the vehicle on level ground.

3.

Check the oil level in the tank.

4.

Oil level too low:
Top up with hydraulic oil.

8.7.6. Changing the hydraulic oil

WARNING

The oil can be hot and cause injury.

1. Operate  the  loader  for  a  while  to  warm  the  oil.  Place  the  loader  in  the  parked  position.  Take

care that the temperature of the oil does not exceed the point where you can handle it safely. If
this occurs allow the oil to cool before moving to the next step.

WARNING

• Suitable  eye  and  hand  protection  must  be  worn  while  carrying  out  this

operation, and if there is a risk for inhalation of oil mist, a mask as well.

• Inhalation of oil mist: Contact a doctor.
• Skin  contact:  Remove  polluted  clothing,  wash  with  soap  and  water.  In  the

event of high pressure injection of the product, see a doctor without delay.

• Eye  contact:  Rinse  eyes  with  plenty  of  water,  see  a  doctor  if  irritation

persists.

2. Drain the oil tank through the drain plug. Make sure

the system contains as little as possible.
Use a container with sufficient capacity.

3. Change at the same time:

- all filters

4. Refit the drain plug.

NOTE

Ensure  the  waste  oil  is  disposed  of  safely  and  in  accordance  with  local
environmental regulations.
