Bobcat s250 - Warming the Hydraulic; Hydrostatic System; Stopping the Engine

S250 Bobcat Loader
OI-31 Operation & Maintenance Manual
WARMING THE HYDRAULIC / HYDROSTATIC SYSTEM
Procedure
IMPORTANT
When the temperature is below -30°C (-20°F),
hydrostatic oil must be warmed before starting. The
hydrostatic system will not get enough oil at low
temperatures and will be damaged. Park the machine
in an area where the temperature will be above 18°C
(0°F) if possible.
I-2007-1285
Let the engine run at least 5 minutes to warm the engine
and hydrostatic fluid before operating the loader.

If the Fluid Pressure Icon (Item 1) [Figure OI-56]
(Standard Panel) or [Figure OI-57] (Deluxe Panel)
comes ON when operating the loader (cold), more warm
up time is needed.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Procedure
Figure OI-58
Pull the engine speed control fully backward
[Figure OI-58] to decrease the engine speed.
Let the engine run at idle speed for 5 minutes to let the
turbocharger cool before stopping the engine.
IMPORTANT
After a full load operation, allow the engine to run at
idle speed for 5 minutes before stopping the engine.
Failure to do so can result in premature failure of the
turbocharger.
I-2214-0402
Turn the key switch to the STOP position [Figure OI-56]
or press the STOP Button (Standard Panel)
[Figure OI-57] (Deluxe Panel).
