HYDRAULIC OIL REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
One of the most important maintenance tasks is to change the
hydraulic oil yearly. Under heavy usage the oil should be changed
every nine months. It is important to change the oil regularly to
prevent its breakdown which leads to the damaging of components.
The oil filter should be changed at the same time as the hydraulic oil.
A clean filter prevents particles from damaging the other components
in the system.
Replace the hydraulic fluid as follows:
Þ
Disconnect power to unit.
Þ
Remover the front top panel on the main console.
Þ
Remove chrome vent cap from breather pipe located beside
electric motor.
Þ
Remove plug bolt from bottom left front corner of main console to
drain oil into your catch pail.
Þ
Remove oil filter.
Þ
Replace plug bolt.
Þ
Refill unit through breather pipe using approximately 12 U.S.
gallons of Tellus 32 hydraulic oil (oil should be 6 1/2" deep in
tank).
Þ
Install new oil filter (Part# SE50094).
Þ
Replace chrome vent cap and front top panel.
Þ
Reconnect power to unit.
Þ
Run unit to remove any air in the lines.
NOTE:
Mixer may run rough and noisy for one or two hours if air has
become trapped in the line.
