a slip hazard.

The hose must not be remove when checking
the oil. To check or fill the pump, open the oil
filler cap on the top of the reservoir. (Fig.5.1).
The oil should be filled to the bottom of the

hydraulic oil as necessary. Once filled, then
replace the filler cap, and bleed the air from the
hydraulic system as described on page 13.
