Power Steering Fluid Level

1. Tilt the cab.
2. Clean the dipstick and its immediate

surroundings to prevent any dirt from
entering the reservoir.

3. Check the fluid level in the reservoir

using the dipstick.

4. The fluid level must be between the

two marks.

5. Top up oil, if necessary, via the filler

opening. Oil type: see 

Steering Gear

on page 118 .

6. If the level is below the minimum

mark, this is a sign of leakage.
Contact an authorized Service dealer
as soon as possible.

Brake System Air Drier

The air drier can be checked for correct
operation by inspecting the air reservoirs
for condensed water.

1. Check the air reservoirs for

condensed water by pulling on the
rings of the drain valves.

2. If repeatedly more than the normal

amount of water is drained off, the air
drier element will have to be replaced.
Consult your Service dealer.
