Checking Hydraulic Oil Level

Check the hydraulic oil level when the hydraulic
system is cold, prior to operating the power unit. If
the hydraulic system is warm, allow one hour for the
hydraulic system to cool before checking the oil level.
Checking the oil level when the hydraulic system is
warm will produce an inaccurate oil level reading.
After connecting a new attachment or kit that
runs off the power unit's hydraulic system, run the
attachment or kit through a complete cycle, then
stop and check the hydraulic oil level.
1. Park the power unit on a level surface.
2. Fully raise the front hitch.
3. Engage the parking brake and shut off the engine.
4. Remove the key from the ignition switch and
allow time for the hydraulic system to cool.
5. Remove the operator cushion from the rear pan-
els of the power unit.
6. Remove the dipstick (A)
from the hydraulic oil tank and
wipe with a clean cloth.
7. Set the dipstick back in place
without threading in.
8. Remove the dipstick and
check the oil level. The level
should be between the two
notches on the dipstick.
9. If the hydraulic oil level is low, add Ventrac
HydroTorq XL synthetic hydraulic oil until the
proper level is reached.
10. Reinstall the dipstick into the hydraulic oil tank.
11. Place the operator cushion back on the power unit.
