MAINTENANCE
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
After the first 5 hours of operation, fluid level in the
hydraulic system should be checked every 100 hours
or when a leak has occurred. If the fluid is low, check
all components for leaks.
To check, remove reservoir cap M. The fluid level
should be at the bottom of the filler tube. If low, top up
(do not overfill). Use one of the oils listed below:
– SAE 15W40 motor oil
– SAE 20W50 motor oil
– 15W50 synthetic motor oil
AFTER FIRST FIVE (5) HOURS
1. Remove plug N to drain hydraulic reservoir.
Dispose of used oil in accordance with local
requirements.
2. Clean and replace the plug.
3. Change hydraulic oil filter G.
4. Fill the reservoir with fresh oil to the bottom of the
reservoir filler tube, using an oil from the list above.
Do not overfill.
PERIODIC OIL CHANGES
Change the hydraulic fluid and hydraulic filter after
each 500 hours of operation using the same procedure
given above.

NOTES:
Before servicing the hydraulic system, stop the engine and disengage the PTO.
–
After any hydraulic line is opened, plug or cap it promptly to reduce the risk of contamination.
– Do not use teflon tape on hydraulic pipe fittings. Use a liquid sealant that will dissolve into the system.
– Make sure all hydraulic connections are tight and hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before
applying pressure to system.
The machine's hydraulic system operates under high pressure. When checking for leaks, do not use your
hands to attempt to find a leak. Instead, use cardboard or paper. Escaping hydraulic fluid can be under suffi-
cient pressure to penetrate skin and cause serious injury. If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
promptly removed by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.
