Figure 4.10: Hydraulic Oil Sight Glass
1.
Locate sight glass (A) on the right side of the hydraulic fluid
tank.
NOTE:
The sight glass allows the operator to visually inspect the oil
level and its quality. The sight glass can be seen with the
hood open or closed.
2.
Ensure that the hydraulic oil level is between the low and
full indicator marks on the sight glass.
IMPORTANT:
If you do not see any oil in the sight glass, then the oil level
is below the ADD mark on the dipstick. This problem should
be addressed immediately.

Reinstall breather cap (A) and filler plug (B) and turn
the filler plug handle clockwise until it is secure.
