MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
HYDRAULIC OIL LEvEL
Check the oil level in the hydraulic oil tank.
The oil level should be in the middle of site
glass with mast fully lowered and reach
retracted.
NOTE:
For correctly checking the hydraulic oil level,
park the forklift on level ground and stand the
mast vertically with the forks lowered to their
lowest limit beforehand.
REFILLING HYDRAULIC OIL
Remove the hydraulic oil ller cap. While checking the hydraulic oil level
with the site gauge, pour the specied hydraulic oil into the oil ller until
the oil level is in the proper area (refer to page 85).
CAUTION
!
• Each forklift model has a different level of hydraulic oil.
Conrm the model when checking level. Relling oil to
incorrect level is a cause of oil leakage.
• Do not use any hydraulic oil other than those specied by
the OEM, otherwise it may cause not only deterioration in the
performance of the forklift but could result in an accident.
• Carefully add the hydraulic oil so as not to mix dust and
foreign substances in the oil.

CHECKING mAST
Check the mast to ensure that:
a. No oil leakage occurs at or around the lift and tilt cylinders.
b. Check rollers for proper rotation.
c. Check the chain anchors and pins.
Lubricate the points shown periodically in accordance with the Periodic
Maintenance and Lubrication Schedule (refer to pages 79-84). Apply a
coat of grease to the thrust metals and liner.
NOTE:
a. The lubrication interval will
vary with working conditions.
During months in which
working conditions are severe,
it will be necessary to grease
the parts frequently.
b. When forklift is operated, apply
a coat of grease to the contact
surface of the lift roller and
inner mast or outer mast.
