ADDING HYDRAULIC FLUID
As previously indicated, a hydraulic systems worst enemy is CONTAMINATION. Exercise
extreme care when adding fluid to the hydraulic tank.
• To prevent any dirt or water from entering the hydraulic tank, thoroughly clean area
around top of filter. Remove plug on top of filter.
• Use fresh clean hydraulic fluid. If a hand pump is used to transfer the fluid, check that
pump filter is clean. If pouring of fluid from a container, pour it through a fine wire mesh
screen, 200 mesh or finer.
• Replace plug immediately after filling tank to proper level.
Do not use a cloth for straining fluid as lint is harmful
to the hydraulic system.
