Changing Oil & Flushing Reservoir
Small metal particles may accumulate at the bot-
tom of the reservoir with normal use. Therefore,
to keep the reservoir clean, drain and flush it after
the first 300 hours, then after every 1000 hours.
Place a catch pan under the apron drain plug
shown in Figure 94, then remove the fill plug and
drain plug, and empty the reservoir.
Figure 94. Location of apron drain plug.
Flush the reservoir by pouring a small amount of
clean oil into the fill hole and allowing it to drain
out the bottom. Replace the drain plug, add oil as
previously described, then re-install the fill plug.
