Checking the Hydraulic Fluid
Fluid Type: Mobil 1 15W-50 synthetic motor oil or
equivalent synthetic oil.
Important: Use oil specified or equivalent.
Other fluids could cause system damage.
Hydraulic System Oil Capacity: 132 ounces (3.9 l)
Check the hydraulic fluid level:
• Before the engine is first started.
• After the first 8 operating hours.
• After every 25 operating hours.
Note: There are two ways of checking the
hydraulic oil. One is when the oil is warm and one
is when the oil is cold. The baffle inside the tank
has two levels depending if the oil is warm or cold.
1. Position the machine on a level surface and set
the parking brake.
