Maintenance
Checking the hydraulic oil level
Do not fill up oil if the oil level is above the FULL mark, otherwise the hydraulic
system can be damaged and escaping oil can cause serious injuries.
☞ Check the hydraulic oil level each time the machine is put into operation or
once a day
☞ Proceed as follows:
• Park the machine on level ground
• Retract all hydraulic rams
☞ Fully dump in the skip
• Switch off the engine
• Sight glass A is located on the left-hand side of the dumper, above the mudguard
• Check the oil level on sight glass A
• The oil level must be at the FULL level
• A gauge element in sight glass A indicates the oil level
If the oil level is lower
• Fill up hydraulic oil
The oil level varies according to the machine's operating temperature:
Measure the oil level of the hydraulic system only after the machine reaches its
operating temperature.
