29.0 HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Refer to section 27.0 Fluids and Lubricantsfor the recommended oil to use in the hydraulic
system of your A50 or A100 model. Use section 36.0 Maintenance and Service Recordsto
keep a record of all scheduled servicing.
All A50 and A100 models (except the A50 skid steer model) are equipped with a hydraulic system
with reservoir. Check the reservoir oil level daily. Check for oil leaks every 8 hours or
whenever the oil level drops rapidly. Inspect the oil condition for cloudiness and/or impurities.
To maintain the hydraulic system, use the following procedures:
1. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.
2. Park the mixer on a flat, level surface, put controls in neutral, apply parking brake if
equipped (if not, block wheels), stop engine, remove ignition key, and wait for all moving
parts to stop. Also, be sure to let engine and hydraulic system cool to a safe temperature
before servicing, adjusting or repairing any of these components. Disconnect the spark
plug lead and ground it to ensure the engine does not start unexpectedly.
29.1 Checking Level in Hydraulic Oil Reservoir (A50 Models except Skid Steer)
Each hydraulic system is equipped with an oil reservoir and breather/filter cap mounted on the
back end of the mixer under frame. The oil level must be checked daily when the oil is cool and
machine is level. Add oil through the vented cap as required to maintain the oil level between the
grooves as identified on the reservoir dipstick (see Figure 44).
