CHECK THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The hydraulic system operates on Mobil DTE 26 or
equivalent anti-wear hydraulic fluid. The machine’s
reservoir is filled at the factory with fluid. However,
check the level of hydraulic fluid before the engine is
first started and daily thereafter.

Before Operating
Because diesel fuel is flammable, use caution when
storing or handling it. Do not fill the fuel tank
while the engine is running, hot or when the
machine is in an enclosed area. Vapors may build
up and be ignited by a spark or flame source many
feet away. DO NOT SMOKE while filling the fuel
tank to prevent the possibility of an explosion.
Always fill the fuel tank outside and wipe up any
spilled diesel fuel before starting the engine. Use a
funnel or spout to prevent spilling diesel fuel and
fill the tank to about 1 inch (25 mm) below the filler
neck. Store diesel fuel in a clean safety-approved
container and keep the cap in place on the container.
Keep diesel fuel in a cool, well-ventilated place;
never in an enclosed area such as a hot storage shed.
To assure volatility and to prevent contamination. do
not buy more than a 6-month supply.
