08 – MAINTENANCE
It is essential to maintain the engine and the machine in accordance with manufacturer
recommendations. Authorised Wacker Neuson Dingo Service Dealers provide expert
servicing, preventative maintenance, and repair using Genuine Wacker Neuson Dingo parts
to keep your machine running smoothly and to sustain validity of your warranty.
Refer to the Pre Start section for maintenance that should be completed before every start.
8.1
Air Filter
The air filter is of extreme importance to ensure the air entering the engine is clean. Blocked
or damaged air filters can greatly reduce engine life. The interval between changes of air
filter will depend on the operating conditions. Air filter replacement is recommended, not
cleaning of the air filter.
In dusty conditions check air filters daily and replace if necessary.
Never blow out your air filter with compressed air.
If the filter or filter housing is damaged, stop the engine immediately and replace the
damaged components. Failure to stop work when the air filter or housing is damaged could
result in irreparable damage.
8.2
Bushes & Pins
Your machine is fitted with Duralon bushes and chrome pins in the load frame.
These bushes are wear parts and require regular inspection not less than weekly.
To check the condition of the bushes:
-
Remove attachment from the front of the Dingo
-
Raise the load frame until the mount plate is at waist height
-
Manually move the mount plate back and forth to identify movement at the pivot pins
in the mount plate
-
Manually move the load frame back and forth to identify movement at the pivot pins in
the load frame
-
If bushes show signs of any wear allowing movement at these points, contact your
Authorised Wacker Neuson Service Dealer.
-
A small amount of movement indicates initial wear which quickly accelerates if not
attended to promptly.
8.3
Engine Oil
Refer to the engine manual for required oil types, crankcase capacity and viscosity.
Dingo recommends engine oil is checked daily and changed every 100 hours.
8.4
Oil Filter
Refer to engine manufacturer recommendations.
