Change Hydraulic Fluid and Filter
The hydraulic fluid and filter (
A
) should be replaced after every 400 hours
of operation. If the restriction gauge is in the red while the facing is running,
change the hydraulic fluid and filter.
If changing oil based on the ISO Cleanliness guidelines, the target level is
19/16/13 and the maximum level is 21/19/16.
The level contains three numbers. The first represents the number of particles
equal to or larger than 4
μ
m per milliliter of fluid. The second represents the
number of particles equal to or larger than 6
μ
m per milliliter of fluid. The third
represents the number of particles equal to or larger than 14
μ
m per milliliter
of fluid.
Fluid should also be changed as extreme weather conditions dictate.
To drain tank, remove the cowling and place the drain tube into a container and open drain valve (
B
).
Refer to the "Hydraulic Fluids" section of this manual for hydraulic fluid recommendations.

Maintenance
Check Hydraulic Fluid
The hydraulic fluid level should be checked daily.
Refer to the "Hydraulic Fluids" section of this manual for hydraulic fluid
recommendations.
If fluid is not visible in the reservoir strainer, fill reservoir until fluid is
visible in the strainer. Do not overfill reservoir as the fluid will expand as it
heats up.
Never allow dirt, water or other foreign matter to enter the tank.
Use only clean fluid from an unopened container.
