yearly, whichever occurs first.
Replacing the Fuel Filter
Never install a dirty filter if it is removed from the fuel
line.
Note: Note how the fuel filter is installed.
1. Disengage the PTO and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Close fuel shut–off valve at fuel tank (Fig. 42).
Note: Remove fuel line from fuel valve that is closest to
the engine.
4. Squeeze the ends of the hose clamps together and slide
them away from the filter (Fig. 43).
5. Remove the filter from the fuel lines.

Servicing the Hydraulic
System
Checking the Hydraulic Fluid
Check the hydraulic fluid level before engine is first
started.
Check the hydraulic fluid level after first 8 operating
hours.
Check the hydraulic fluid level after every 40 operating
hours.
Fluid Type: Mobil 1 15W-50 synthetic motor oil or
equivalent synthetic oil.
Important
Use oil specified or equivalent. Other
fluids could cause system damage.
Hydraulic System Oil Capacity: 67 oz. (2.0 l)
Note: There are two ways of checking the hydraulic oil.
One is when the oil is warm and one is when the oil is
cold. The baffle inside the tank has two levels depending
if the oil is warm or cold.
1. Position machine on a level surface and set the parking
brake.
2. Clean area around filler neck of hydraulic tank
(Fig. 44).

3. Remove cap from filler neck. Look inside to check if
there is fluid in the reservoir. (Fig. 44).
4. If there is no fluid, add fluid to the reservoir until it
reaches the cold level of the baffle.
5. Run the machine at low idle for 15 minutes to allow
any air to purge out of the system and warm fluid.
Refer to Starting and Stopping the Engine on page 22.
