Changing The Pump Case Oil; Checking The Hydraulic Lines And Hoses; Adjusting The Traction Pump Belt - Toro 09802 HydroJect 3010 Operator's Manual

7. Remove the filler cap and add approximately 4–5 quarts
of Mobil DTE 26 hydraulic oil or equivalent oil to the
gear case reservoir. Install the filler cap.
8. Check for leaks around the oil filter. Tighten the filter
only enough to eliminate leaks. Do not overtighten.
9. Lower the hood and secure the latches.

Changing the Pump Case Oil

Change the pump oil initially after 25 hours of operation;
thereafter change it every 200 hours of operation.
Important
The pump case oil must be changed
immediately when any contamination, sludge, water or
condensation appears.
1. Disengage the hood latches and open the hood.
2. Place a drain pan under the pump case. Clean the area
around the drain plug on the bottom of the case
(Fig. 28).
Note: When draining the oil, use a funnel or some type of
channel to divert the draining oil away from the machine
components and into a drain pan.
3. Remove the drain plug and allow oil to flow into a drain
pan. After the oil has drained, install the oil drain plug.
4. Remove the dipstick/filler cap and add approximately
40 ounces of Mobil DTE Extra Heavy oil or equivalent
to the pump case. Install the filler cap.

5. Check the oil level. If the fluid level is low, add enough
Mobil DTE Extra Heavy oil or equivalent to bring the
oil up to the proper level. Do not overfill.
6. Check for possible leaks. Lower the hood and secure
the latches.
Checking the Hydraulic Lines
and Hoses
Check the hydraulic lines and hoses daily for leaks, kinked
lines, loose mounting supports, wear, loose fittings, weather
deterioration, and chemical deterioration. Make all
necessary repairs before operating.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
penetrate skin and cause injury.
• Make sure all hydraulic fluid hoses and lines are
in good condition and all hydraulic connections
and fittings are tight before applying pressure to
the hydraulic system.
• Keep your body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure
hydraulic fluid.
• Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
• Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic
system before performing any work on the
hydraulic system.
• Get immediate medical help if fluid is injected
into skin.
Adjusting the Traction Pump
Belt
Make sure that the traction pump belt is properly tensioned
to ensure correct operation of the unit and unnecessary
wear. Check the belt midway in the span of the belt.
1. Disengage the hood latches and open the hood.
2. Check the belt tension by depressing the belt midway
between the pulleys with 3 lb. of force. The belt should
deflect 9/64 in. (Fig. 29).
