3. Remove the dipstick from the hydraulic tank and
wipe it with a clean cloth ( Figure 83 ).
4. Insert the dipstick into the hydraulic tank.
5. Remove the dipstick and check the uid level
( Figure 84 ).
• If you have a cutting unit equipped: The
hydraulic-uid level is at the appropriate level
when the uid appears between the lower 2
marks on the dipstick ( A in Figure 84 ). It is
also acceptable for the uid level to be above
the lower marks.
• If you have the Hydraulic Driven
Attachment Hose Kit equipped: The
hydraulic-uid level is at the appropriate level
when the uid appears between the upper 2
marks on the dipstick ( B in Figure 84 ).

6. If the uid level is below the appropriate lower
mark (per your equipped attachment; refer

the appropriate 2 marks on the dipstick.

tank.
8. Hand-tighten the plug.
Important: Do not use a tool to tighten the
plug.
9. Check all hydraulic hoses and ttings for leaks.
