8.17 Hydraulic oil filters
Change the hydraulic oil filters according to the maintenance schedule. The return filter is easily
accessible via the left-hand side of the engine compartment. Unscrew the plastic cover and the filter
can be lifted out. Insert a new filter and tighten the lid firmly by hand. The return filter can be
changed without the need to change or drain the hydraulic oil.
The hydraulic oil filter near the drive motor is accessible through the service area under the seat.
Make sure the ignition and the battery isolator are switched off; create working space around the
filter and clean the area. Go through the next steps:
- Make sure that the seat cannot fall back onto the service area.
- Unscrew the filter with filter pliers
- Clean the contact edge and apply a layer of grease or oil to the contact surface of the new
filter.
- Mount the new filter hand-tight and lightly tighten it with filter pliers.
- Clean the whole.
- Check that the service area is properly closed.
- Start the machine and drive a short distance to check for leaks.
