ENVIRONMENT
Leaking hydraulic oils pollute the soil!
Working with hydraulic oils endangers the ground. Fuel that
escapes from defective machines, complete plants, tanks or
through carelessness can pollute the ground and the ground
water.
Therefore:
Never spill any fuel when relling.
Collect any fuel that escapes or spills and dispose of it in
compliance with the national regulations!
Prevent any escaped fuel from seeping into the ground.

Draining the fuel lter
Condensation will build up whilst the diesel engine is run-
ning. This condensation collects in the fuel lter and it must
be drained off every 200 running hours or once a year at the
least.
The fuel lter is located in the engine area on the left side of
the machine.
There is a plastic wheel underneath the fuel lter. This is used
as a shut-off valve. Use this shut-off valve to drain the con-
densation.
Draining the fuel lter:
Place a dry cloth under the fuel lter.
Open the shut-off valve by turning the plastic wheel to the
right until the water ows out of the fuel lter (Fig. MW7).
