HYDROSTATIC RESERVOIR OIL LEVEL
IMPORTANT: Park the mower-conditioner on level
ground, and lower the header before checking oil
level in the tongue reservoir. Clean trash and dirt
from the area around the dipstick.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the top of the tongue is level,
and remove the dipstick slowly to allow air (pressure)
to escape.
Remove the dipstick, 1, and wipe it with a clean cloth.
Reinstall the dipstick finger tight and remove it to
check oil level. The oil level should be in the
crosshatched area on the dipstick.
If the oil level is low, add Ambra Multi G 134 Hydraulic
oil to the tongue reservoir until the oil level is between
the marks on the dipstick. Replace the dipstick and
tighten with a wrench. The reservoir holds
approximately 75.7L (20 gal.).
LEFT SIDE DRIVES
Lower the header.
Add API GL-5 80W-90 gear oil as needed to keep oil
level with the bottom edge of the check plug hole, 1,
for the main gearbox and 2, sickle drive gearbox.
(Use a hand pump or oil can to add oil to the left sickle
drive gearbox).
