6.2.2 Checking and Changing the Oil
Check the quality of hydraulic fluid. If bad, take the following steps to change the oil. To begin, lower gate to
ground and tilt platform down. Open the power pack, so you can reach the oil filler cap. Unscrew the oil
drainage bolt (bottom of tray) and let the fluid drain out of the reservoir into an approved container.
If the reservoir is empty fill it up with recommended hydraulic oil, as shown on table 2. The oil level must be
within the marked limits at the oil tank or dipstick (see indication at oil tank or dipstick).
After filling, the liftgate must be opened and the oil level topped up if necessary.
