8.1 MAINTENANCE TO BE CARRIED OUT BY OPERATOR
The following are the basic instructions for performing proper maintenance on the machine. More detailed
information can be found in the diesel engine operation and maintenance manual (supplied), which
operators are required to read and understand (along with the present manual) before using the machine.
- CHECKING THE LUBRICATION WATER LEVEL
- Open the discharge lever (FIG. 43-REF. 1) to empty the tank.
- If the water in the tank is not clear but grey and thick, it means that slurry is seeping out from between the piston and the
pumping tube. If this occurs, replace the pistons.
- Turn the lever (FIG. 43-REF. 1) to its horizontal position to close the tank.
- Fill the tank by pouring water through the slots until overflowing.

The lubrication water should be changed completely at least once a week, or preferably after every work
session.
When working in a cold climate, empty the tank at the end of every work session or add antifreeze.
- CHECKING THE ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check the level of the engine coolant and top up if necessary (see paragraph 7.3).
- CHECKING THE MOTOR OIL
Check the motor oil level using the dipstick. The level should be near the top mark but never above.
For topping up, use: TOTAL RUBIA TIR 7400 or an equivalent oil.
- CHECKING THE ENGINE AIR FILTER
The engine air filter contains two filter cartridges (1st and 2nd stage). To inspect the filter snap off the cover (FIG. 44-REF. 1)
and remove the 1st stage cartridge (FIG. 44-REF. 2) and the 2nd stage cartridge (FIG. 44-REF. 3). Lightly tap the filter element
of the 1st stage cartridge on a hard surface a few times to shake off any excess dirt. Do not blow the paper filter element with
compressed air. The 2nd stage cartridge can be cleaned a few times with compressed air but not washed with water.
Accurately clean the cover and the filter mount.
- CHECKING THE DIESEL FUEL LEVEL
Check the diesel fuel level.
