Hydraulic System
Checking the Hydraulic Fluid
Check the hydraulic fluid level before engine is first
started.
Fluid Type: Mobil 1 15W-50 synthetic motor oil.
Important Use only oil specified. Other fluids could
cause system damage.
Hydraulic System Oil Capacity: 2.1 qt. (2.0 l)
1. Position machine on a level surface and set the parking
brake.
2. Clean area around filler neck of hydraulic tank
(Fig. 10).
3. Remove cap from filler neck. Look inside to check if
there is fluid in the reservoir. (Fig. 10).
4. If there is no fluid, add fluid to reservoir
approximately a 1/4″ (6 mm) below the top of baffle.
5. Run the machine at low idle for 15 minutes to allow
any air to purge out of the system and warm fluid.
Refer to Starting and Stopping the Engine on page 20.
6. Recheck level while fluid is warm. Add fluid to raise
level to top of the baffle, if required.
Note: Fluid level should be to the top of the baffle when
fluid is warm (Fig. 10).
