Bleed the traction hydraulic system whenever you
perform maintenance on the hydrostatic transmission
or add hydraulic fluid to the expansion tank.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, move
the motion-control levers to the N
position, engage the parking brake, and lower
the hopper.
2. Shut off the engine, and remove the key. Allow
the engine to cool.
3. Check the hydraulic fluid level and add hydraulic
fluid as necessary; refer to
Hydraulic Drive System (page
4. Support the machine on jack stands, high
enough to raise the tracks off the ground.
5. Start the machine. Slowly move the
motion-control levers forward and reverse 5 to
6 times.
6. Check the hydraulic fluid level and add hydraulic
fluid as necessary.
7. Repeat steps 5 and
air is completely purged from the system.
Note:
Purging is complete when you obtain

Hydraulic-fluid type: Toro Premium All Season
Hydraulic Fluid or Mobil® 424 Hydraulic Fluid
Important:
Always use the correct hydraulic
fluid. Unspecified fluids will damage the hydraulic
system.
Note:
Many hydraulic fluids are almost colorless,
making it difficult to spot leaks. A red dye additive for
the hydraulic system oil is available in 0.67 fl oz (20
ml) bottles. One bottle is sufficient for 15 to 22 L (4
to 6 US gallons) of hydraulic fluid. Order Part No.

Checking the Hydraulic-Fluid
Level for the Lift and Slew System
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Park the machine on a level surface, move
the motion-control levers to the N
position, engage the parking brake, rotate and
raise the hopper, and install the cylinder lock.
2. Shut off the machine and remove the key. Allow
the machine to cool completely.
3. Remove the filler cap from the reservoir tank
(Figure 54).
CAUTION
The hydraulic breather/filler cap is
designed to pressurize the reservoir to
34 kPa (5 psi).
Loosen the cap slowly to avoid injury
whenever adding fluid or working on the
hydraulic system. Use a wrench on the
hex directly under the cap.
