CAUTION
Hydraulic reservoir is pressurized to 7 psi.
Depressurize before adding oil or changing
filter.
NOTICE
Elgin Sweeper Company recommends Texaco Rando
HDZ 68 or equivalent hydraulic oil...
After every 500 hours of use, or every 6 months,
whichever occurs first, the hydraulic oil
should be changed and the tank flushed. Oil
must be new, clean oil and meet all Elgin
requirements for hydraulic oil.
When adding oil, remove the hex head plug on the
top of the return filter and add oil. This will pre-
filter the oil added to the tank.
Used hydraulic filter elements should be replaced
with new, clean filters per scheduled maintenance
or when indicated by the Hydraulic Filter
Restriction indicator (Figure SP-1, #22). Never
reuse a filter.
To drain oil from the hydraulic oil reservoir, use the
plug at the left side of the rear of the sweeper.
SPRAY WATER SYSTEM
Water applied during sweeping through spray noz-
zles (Figure SP-9) suppresses dust and moistens
the debris for better settling in the hopper.
Two interconnected 140 gal. (529.8 L) (total of 280
gal. [1060 L]) polyethylene water tanks (Figure SP-
10) supply water for the spray water system.
