LUBRICATION
General
Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional
movements during lubrication.
When lubricating with an oil can, it must be filled with
engine oil.
When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated,
use a high grade molybdenum disulphide grease.
For daily use, the machine should be lubricated twice
weekly.
Wipe away excess grease after lubrication.
It is important to avoid getting lubricant on the belts
or the drive surfaces on the belt pulleys. Should this
happen, attempt to clean them with spirits. If the belt
continues to slip after cleaning, it must be replaced.
Gasoline or other petroleum products must not be used
to clean belts.
Hydraulic System, Oil Level
The hydraulic oil and filter should be replaced every
300 hours, and at least once a year. Contact an
authorized service workshop.
Check the oil level in the hydraulic tank daily. The level
should be about ¾"-1" (19 - 25 mm) below the top of
the tank. Check connections, hoses, and tubes for
damage or leaks. Replace or repair if doubtful.
Hydraulic System-Changing Oil and filters
Oil and filter changes should be carried out by
an authorized service workshop due to the risk of
impurities entering the system.
Driver’s Seat
Tip the seat forward. Lubricate the hinges at the front
of the seat using an oil can. Lubricate the seat slide
adjustment and lever mechanism with the oil can.
Engine Oil
The engine oil must be changed for the first time after
8 hours of operation. Thereafter, it should be changed
every 100 hours. See the engine manufacturer’s
manual for specifications on oil type, filling instructions.

Checking the hydraulic oil
WARNING!
If a leak is suspected, use a piece of
cardboard or wood, NOT your hands, to
check for leaks.
Escaping hydraulic oil under pressure can
have sufficient force to penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury.
If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor
at once. Serious infection or reaction can
develop if proper medical treatment is not
administered immediately.
