was performed as prescribed, measurement of 500 hours should begin at the 100 hour mark.
The following services must be performed after every 500 hours of operation or yearly.
Check Accumulator Fluid Level
Safely raise the front of the vehicle so the
front tires are just off of the ground.
Remove the plug (1) from the front of each
front accumulator and check the fluid level.
The fluid should be level with the bottom of
the fill hole.
NOTE: If the fluid is foamy, the accumulator
has failed. Contact your dealer for repair.
IMPORTANT: Use only Lucas Universal
Hydraulic Fluid for the accumulator fluid.
If required, add Lucas Universal Hydraulic
Fluid to fill the accumulator to the bottom of
the fill hole.
Install the plug and tighten.
Safely raise the front of the vehicle so the
front tires are just off of the ground.
Remove the cap (2) and install a nitrogen
valve and gauge on the accumulator.
Open the valve and check the nitrogen level.
It may be necessary to top off the nitrogen
level yearly.

Replace Fuel Filter
The fuel filter (1) is located in the engine com-
partment on the left side of the engine.
NOTE: Fuel will spill from the filter and fuel
lines. Use a suitable container to collect the
fuel and dispose of properly.
Use a new filter, Part Number 201450242. Fill
the new filter with diesel fuel before installing.
NOTE: It is not necessary to bleed the fuel
system after replacing fuel filters.
Additional fuel system information is available
in the engine manufacturer’s manual pro-
vided with the Apache Sprayer.
