D7 - HYDRAULIC RETURN OIL FILTER CARTRIDGE
CHANGE
Stop the I.C. engine and remove the pressure from the circuits by acting on the hydraulic
controls.
Thoroughly clean the outside of the filter and its surroundings before any intervention in
order to prevent any risk of polluting the hydraulic circuit.
- Open the I. C. engine bonnet.
- Unscrew the locking screws of the cover 1 (fig. D7).
- Remove the hydraulic return oil filter cartridge 2 (fig. D7), and fit new replacement
cartridge (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: FILTERS CARTRIDGES AND BELTS).
- Make sure that the cartridge is correctly positioned and refit cover 1 (fig. D7).
D8 - PARKING BRAKE LEVER MECHANISM
GREASE
- Clean and grease articulation axles 1 (fig. D8) with grease (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE:
LUBRICANTS AND FUEL).
D9 - CAB VENTILATION FILTER
CLEAN
Optional for MC 30 Série 3-E2
- Lift up protective casing 1 (fig. D9/1).
- Lift out cabin ventilation filter 2 (fig. D9/2).
- Clean the filter with a compressed air jet.
- Check its condition and change if necessary (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: FILTERS
CARTRIDGES AND BELTS).
- Refit the filter and protective casing.
D10 - BATTERY ELECTROLYTE DENSITY
CHECK
The electrolyte density varies depending on the temperature concerned, but a minimum of
1260 at 16°C must be maintained. In the shaded area (fig. D10), the battery is in a normal
charge condition. Readings above this zone indicate that the battery needs to be
recharged.
The density should not vary more than 0.025 units between cells.
- Check the electrolyte density in each battery cell using a hydrometer.
- Do not carry out this check immediately after topping up with distilled water. Recharge
the battery for at least an hour before checking the battery electrolyte density.
Handling and servicing a battery can be dangerous, take the following precautions:
- Wear protective goggles.
- Keep the battery horizontal.
- Never smoke or work near a naked flame.
- Work in a well-ventilated area.
- In the event of electrolyte being spilled onto the skin or splashed in the eyes, rinse
thoroughly with cold water for 15 minutes and call a doctor.
