OPERaTION
HyDRaULIC FILLING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Open the air bleeder valve by turning counter clockwise
approximately four turns. Failure to open vent will cause “air
locking”, making filling of the hydraulic tank reservoir difficult.
SEE FIGURE 24.
2. Remove filler cap. SEE FIGURE 24.
3. Using a funnel in the fill spout pour 3 quarts of SAE10 hydraulic
oil. If hydraulic oil is difficult to obtain, automatic transmission
fluid can be substituted. DO NOT mix hydraulic oil and
transmission fluid.
4. Start Engine (see instructions in engine manual).
