12. Hydraulics
12.1 Checking the oil level of
the hydraulic system
When checking the oil level ensure that the rear
power lift is lowered and that the hydraulic rams
are fully retracted. Oil temperature approx. 20°C.
Operation_Pic_number:1
● Unscrew oil dipstick (A).
The oil level should be between the Min. and
Max. markings on the dipstick.
Danger:
When working on the hydraulics,
always switch off the engine and
ensure that the tractor is safely
parked (hand brake applied, wheels
chocked).
The system is highly
pressurised.Ensure that all pressure
is released, and that mounted
implements are lowered before any
work is carried out on the
hydraulics.
When checking for leaks, avoid
injury by using a suitable aid (e.g. a
piece of wood).
Check hydraulic hoses regularly,
and replace if they are showing
signs of damage or ageing.
Replacement hoses must meet the
technical requirements of the
implement manufacturer.
Always pay special attention to
absolute cleanliness.
