SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
Greasing
Greasing of the machine is of utmost importance to prevent wear in joints. Most of the joints are
service free - however the slewing bearings must be greased in accordance with the maintenance
schedule, using grease that contains EP (extreme pressure) additive. Outrigger bearings and
articulation bearings in all hydraulic cylinders must be greased in accordance with the
maintenance schedule.
Handling of fuel and refuelling
Hydraulic oil and hydraulic oil filter replacement
Hydraulic oil level
The level of hydraulic oil can be checked with the dipstick in the filler cap (2). The oil level
should be at the upper mark in the dipstick when the booms are positioned on the transport
supports and the outriggers are in the transport position. The oil level can also be inspected via
an oil inspection hole on the side of the machine.

Check the fuel level and refuel if necessary (1).
Before refuelling, check whether the engine runs on
petrol or diesel.
Petrol specified by the manufacturer in its manual
must be used in a machine with a petrol engine.
NOTE! To switch on the engine, the ignition (2)
must be in position 1!

The hydraulic return oil filter is located on top of the
hydraulic oil tank (1) on the chassis.
Replace the filter by removing the filter cap and replacing
the filter cartridge. When replacing the hydraulic oil, the oil
can be removed with a suction pump from the opening of
the breather cap (2), or by opening the drain plug. In both
cases, it is important to clean the magnetic drain plug.
The hydraulic pressure filter cartridge (3) must always be
changed when the return filter is changed.
