4.16 Check Hydraulic Oil Level
The hydraulic oil level is visible through the
sight glass on the side of the tank (Figure
19). The level should be between the upper
and lower marks on the sight glass.
To replenish, refer to Section 5.12 " Change
Hydraulic Oil and Filter" on page 46.

4.17 Check Hydraulic Oil Temperature
When the TW 280FTR is running, the oil temperature should
not exceed 65
o
C. If it does, stop the machine immediately
and investigate the cause. Failure to do so may result in
damage.
Overheating may result from the chipper working hard in hot
conditions with no time for the oil to cool.
Stop the chipper and allow to cool before continuing.
If the oil temperature rises above 65
o
C and the machine is
not being worked hard or the air temperature is not
particularly high, this may indicate low oil, or a jammed
hydraulic motor or valve.
