Changing the hydraulic oil  

 
 

1.

 

Shut  down  the  splitter  and 
disconnect  it  from  its  power 
sources. 

2.

 

Open  the  filler  cap  C.  This 
will  allow  the  oil  to  drain 
more  easily.  The  filler  cap  is 
located on the oil tank in the 
middle 

section 

of 

the 

splitter. 

3.

 

Next,  open  the  drain  plug  A 
located  next  to  the  angle 
transmission B, and drain the 
oil into a suitable container.  

4.

 

Unscrew the bolts D to open 
the  filter  cover,  and  replace 
the old filter with a new one 
(CR-50). 

5.

 

Close  the  drain  plug  A,  and 
fill  the  tank  with  fresh  oil 
(approx. 42 litres).  

6.

 

Finally,  ensure  that  the  oil 
level  settles  between  the 
minimum  and  maximum 
limits, E and F.
