VERSA PRO TANK FILLING INSTRUCTIONS
USE Universal Tractor Hydraulic oil only.
A VERSA PRO will require approximately 26 gallons of oil to fill the hydraulic tank, hoses, and cooling tubes in
the mower deck. The Hydraulic tank only holds 15 gallons of oil and you can not add enough oil to the tank the
first time to completely fill the system. Therefore, the following filling instructions must be carefully followed to
prevent pump cavitation and instant pump failure.
1.
After the VERSA PRO mower is completely assembled to the tractor and with the wings on the ground, fill
the mower hydraulic tank above the oil level sight gauge approximately 1" below the top of the tank. Use
Universal Tractor Hydraulic Oil only.
2.
Start the tractor and engage PTO for 30 to 45 seconds and then turn it off.
3.
Check the oil level in the sight gauge. If no oil is seen, add oil to bring the level up to the sight gauge.
NOTE: Do not fill the tank with oil above the level of the sight gauge after the first filling. Over-filling the tank
with oil after the initial filling may result in oil being discharged through the air filter on top of the hydraulic tank.
4.
Start the tractor and engage PTO for 2 minutes and then turn it off.
5.
Again check the oil level in the sight gauge. If the oil level is in the sight gauge, the unit is ready to run no
oil is seen, add oil to bring the level up to the sight gauge.
6.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 as required until the oil level stabilizes at the level of the sight gauge.
Use Hydraulic Oil Chevron 1000 THF or an equivalent.
Note: Your ambient temperature and operating conditions may require a different viscosity oil. Please consult
the oil manufacturer for proper specifications.
Cylinder Rod Maintenance
It is important to visually inspect the hydraulic cylinder rods daily before use. It is highly recommended that
while the machine is stored or getting very little use that a protectant is applied to the hydraulic cylinder rods to
prevent degradation. If the machine receives more frequent use, be sure to fully cycle each cylinder function so
that the cylinder rod is coated by the systems hydraulic fluid. Depending on your operating environment it may
be necessary, under normal operating conditions, to apply a protective lubricant to the cylinder rods for
protection against rust and pitting. Hydraulic fluid may provide a suitable amount of protection, but remember
any protectant can attract dust and debris so attention must be given to the cylinder rods daily. Also remember
that any other protectant must be compatible with hydraulic fluid. Alamo Industrial is not responsible for rust or
pitting of the cylinder rod due to weather exposure or impacts from normal operation or mounting. If hydraulic
cylinders and or the cylinder rods are damaged as a result of the rods rusting or pitting, the hydraulic cylinders
and rods will not be covered under warranty by Alamo Industrial.
