oil to be removed under the drainage plug at the bottom of the tank.
Remember to tighten the plug before filling the tank.
Disposing of the oil will have to be done in conformity with local and state laws along with
OSHA regulations. Hydraulic oil is considered special waste.

regular intervals of time to be defined according to the conditions of use and the environment
where the machine is located.
It is recommended to change the filter after the first 100 hours of operation. After that
approximately every 500-600 hours.
