Engine oil - fill

Filling capacity (with oil filter): 3.6 l
Remove the oil filler cap (1) and fill engine oil. See the "Recom-
mended lubricants" section (page 112).
Screw in the oil filler cap.
Start the engine (page 66). The engine oil pressure indicator
must go out as soon as the engine has started. If this does not
happen, switch the engine off immediately and contact trained
personnel.
Let the engine run at idle speed to warm up, then stop it
(page 67). Check the oil level after 5 minutes.
Pull out the oil dipstick (1) and wipe it with a clean cloth.
Insert the oil dipstick completely and pull it out again. The oil
level should be in the "A" area. If the oil level is too low, add en-
gine oil.
If the oil level is too high or too low, the engine might
become damaged during operation.
When changing the engine oil, fill engine oil up to the MAX
mark.
Attach the cover under the operator's seat.
Close the engine compartment cover.

Drive unit oil - change

Only change the oil when the drive unit is warm to the hand; if not, drive the excavator until it is warm.
Park the excavator on level ground so that the drain plug (figure below, position 2) is positioned at the bottom.
Place a catch tray with a minimum capacity of 2 litres under the drain plug.
