Preventive maintenance

Check the hydraulic fluid quality



Contact a hydraulic fluid supplier for a precise report on the hydraulic fluid quality.

Do this task when the pump is not running.

Make sure that the drain valve is closed.

Look through the sight gauge to see the color of the hydraulic fluid. Good hydraulic fluid is almost clear.

Remove the filler-breather cap on top of the tank.

Smell the hydraulic fluid. Good hydraulic fluid has almost no odor.

Replace the hydraulic fluid in these situations.



If it is dark or milky in color



If it has a strong odor



After every 3,000 hours of operation

Refer to page 94 for instructions.

Drain valve lever

Filler-breather cap
