Filling up hydraulic oil
Removing the filler plug can cause oil to escape –
Danger of accidents!
☞ Carefully unscrew the plug to slowly reduce the pressure inside the tank.
Do not fill up the hydraulic oil unless the engine is switched off. Otherwise, hydraulic oil will
overflow at the filler opening on the hydraulic tank.
☞ Fill up as follows:
• Park the machine on level ground
• Retract all hydraulic rams
• Switch off the engine
• Clean the area around filler inlet B with a cloth
• Open filler inlet B
With the filter insert in place:
• Fill up hydraulic oil
• Check the hydraulic oil level on sight glass A
• Fill up if necessary and check again
• Firmly tighten plug B
