3. Push the wires onto the spark plugs (Fig. 28).
Servicing the Hydraulic
System
Replacing the Hydraulic Filter
Change the hydraulic filter:
•
After the first 8 to 10 operating hours.
•
After every 400 operating hours.
1. Position traction unit on a level surface.
2. Raise the loader arms and install the cylinder locks;
refer to Using the Cylinder Locks, page 20.
3. Stop the engine and remove the key.
4. Remove the hood, refer to Removing the Hood,
page 25.
Important
Do not substitute an automotive oil filter or
severe hydraulic system damage may result.
5. Place a drain pan under the filter.
6. Remove the old filter and wipe the filter adapter,
gasket surface clean.
7. Apply a thin coat hydraulic fluid to the rubber gasket
on the replacement filter (Fig. 30).
8. Install the replacement hydraulic filter onto the filter
adapter. Tighten it clockwise until the rubber gasket
contacts the filter adapter, then tighten the filter an
additional 1/2 turn (Fig. 30).
9. Clean up any spilled fluid.
10. Start the engine and let it run for about two minutes to
purge air from the system.
11. Stop the engine and check for leaks.
12. Check the fluid level in the hydraulic tank (refer to
Checking the Hydraulic Fluid, page 15) and add fluid
to raise the level to mark on dipstick. Do not over fill
the tank.

13. Install the hood; refer to Installing the Hood, page 25.
14. Remove and store the cylinder locks (refer to Using
the Cylinder Locks, page 20) and lower the loader
arms.
Changing the Hydraulic Fluid
Change the hydraulic fluid yearly.
1. Position traction unit on a level surface.
2. Raise the loader arms and install the cylinder locks;
refer to Using the Cylinder Locks, page 20.
3. Stop the engine and remove the key.
4. Remove the hood; refer to Removing the Hood,
page 25.
5. Place a large drain pan under the traction unit that can
hold at least 17 gal. (67 l).
6. Remove the drain plug from the bottom of the
hydraulic tank and allow the fluid to completely drain
out.
7. Install the drain plug.
8. Fill the hydraulic tank with approximately 15 gal.
10W-30 or 15W-40 detergent, diesel engine oil (API
service CH-4 or higher) (refer to Checking Hydraulic
Fluid, page 15).
Important
Do not substitute automotive transmission
fluid or severe hydraulic system damage may result.
Note: Dispose of used oil at a certified recycling center.
