2. Lubricate the new filter base with a few drops of transmission
oil. Fill the filter half full of oil.
3. Clean the area around the filter base and remove the filter.
Do NOT drain the hydraulic system oil
4. Thread the new filter onto the filter base until the gasket
makes contact, then tighten 3/4 of a turn more.
5. Run the unit for several minutes and check the transmission
oil level.
NOTE: Use caution after changing the filter; air in the hydraulic
system may affect the responsiveness of the control levers.
Repeat step # 5 until the air is out of the system.

Checking Tire Pressures

Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and maintained
at the levels shown in the Specifications chart. Note that these
pressures may differ slightly from the "Max Inflation" stamped
on the side-wall of the tires. The pressures shown provide proper
traction and extend tire life.

Lubrication

Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 24, 25, 26
and 27 as well as the following lubrication points:
Grease
24
Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts to apply
grease to moving parts when grease fittings are not installed.
Not all greases are compatible. Red grease (p/n 5022285) is
recommended, automotive-type, high-temperature, lithium grease
may be used when this is not available.
Oil
Generally, all moving metal parts should be oiled where contact
is made with other parts. Keep oil and grease off belts and
pulleys. Remember to wipe fitting and surfaces clean both before
and after lubrication.
