Fluid Level and Temperature Gauge

A gauge on the right end of the reservoir displays the

level and temperature of the hydraulic fluid (refer to Fig-

ure 5.6).

Figure 5.6 – Hydraulic Fluid Gauge

If the temperature rises above 93°C (200°F) stop machine

operation and let the fluid cool before resuming opera-

tion.

Figure 5.4 – Fuel Tank

Engine Oil

The engine oil level is measured with a dipstick. The dip-

stick is the only way to accurately determine the engine

oil level. The engine oil level should always be between

the add and full marks on the dipstick.

Hydraulic Fluid Filter Gauge

The fluid filter gauge (refer to Figure 5.5) is located on the

return line filter on the left side of the reservoir. The reser-

voir is behind the door on the left side of the turntable.

During high pump flow situations, the gauge indicates

the condition of the filter. When the needle on the gauge

is in the red zone, it is time to change the filter.
