The supply source for the hydraulic system, the oil reservoir, is located on the control deck to the left of the
operator's cab. The reservoir features return line filters and suction screens to keep the oil clean. Filters are
cleanable, and/or replaceable. A sight gage for checking oil quantity is located on the side of the
reservoir. See Figure 1 below.

Check oil level in reservoir before each period of operation, or daily. If, at any time, you find the level is low,
check the loader for leaks around tubes, hoses, fittings, and couplings.

HYDRAULIC OIL CHANGING PROCEDURE
This procedure should be used once during the breaking in period of a new loader (after one week, or 50 hours of
operation) and then every six months, or 1000 hours.
Throughout the oil changing procedure remember that cleanliness is absolutely necessary. Hands, tools,
funnels, oil filling equipment, the oil filler opening, and, above all, the hydraulic oil itself must be kept absolutely
clean. Dirt in the hydraulic system can cause serious damage to pumps, valves, and cylinders.
