Checking the Oil Level

transmission set to neutral. Lower the loader arms and
backhoe to the ground, switch OFF the engine and
remove the starter key.
2 Open the bonnet, see Engine Panels, Opening and
Closing the Bonnet.
3 Check that the oil level is between the two marks on
the dipstick A.
4 If necessary, remove the side panel and add oil through
filler B. Make sure that the dipstick and filler cap are
fully inserted and tightened.

Changing the Oil and Filter

held in suspension will then be drained with the oil.
Park the machine on firm ground.
! WARNING
Make the machine safe before getting beneath it. Lower
the attachments to the ground; engage the parking
brake; remove the starter key, disconnect the battery.

start, remove the engine shut-off solenoid fuse, housed

engine. Check for leaks. When the engine has cooled,
check the oil level.
