Maintenance
5.5 Hydraulic system
Specific safety instructions
• Release the pressure in all lines carrying hydraulic oil prior to any maintenance and
repair work. To do this:
• Set down all hydraulically activated work equipment on the ground and
• actuate all control levers of the hydraulic controllers several times.
• Hydraulic oil escaping under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious
injury. Always consult a doctor immediately, even if the wound seems insignificant –
otherwise serious infections could set in!
• If the hydraulic oil in the sight glass is cloudy, this indicates that water or air has
penetrated the hydraulic system. This can cause damage to the hydraulic system!
☞ Contact your Wacker Neuson dealer immediately
• Oil or fuel flowing out of high pressure lines can cause fire or malfunctions, and serious
injury or damage to property. Interrupt work immediately in case of loose nuts or
damaged lines.
☞ Contact your Wacker Neuson dealer immediately
• Replace the hose or line if one of the problems mentioned below is detected.
☞ Damaged or leaky hydraulic seals.
☞
Worn or torn shells or uncovered reinforcement branches

metal chippings. Otherwise, follow-on damage can result!
