Hydraulic System
* Always stop the engine before performing maintenance.
* Allow oil and system parts to cool before performing maintenance to reduce
risk of burns.
* Properly dispose of waste hydraulic oil after reaming from machine.
Inspecting, Adding, and Replacing HST Oil
* Maintain proper oil level to prevent air from entering system and disrupting
operation.
Inspection
1. Park the machine on level ground.
2. Open the engine cover.
3. Check the oil level gage visually to confirm the
hydraulic oil level.
* Check the hydraulic oil level before starting
the engine. The hydraulic oil level cannot
be precisely measured just after the engine
stops.
NOTE
4. When the oil level is low, add the specified
hydraulic oil.
5. When the hydraulic oil is severely dirty, replace
it with fresh oil.
