Fluid Level and Temperature Gauge
A gauge on the right end of the reservoir displays the
level and temperature of the hydraulic fluid (refer to
Figure 5.6).
Figure 5.6 – Hydraulic Fluid Gauge
If the temperature rises above 200°F (93°C) stop ma-
chine operation and let the fluid cool before resuming
operation.
LPG tanks have a fuel gauge that has two scales. One
scale measures the fuel level when the tank is mounted
vertical and the other is used when the tank is mounted
horizontal (refer to Figure 5.4).
Figure 5.4 – LPG Fuel Tank
The LPG tank is mounted vertically behind the cowling
door on the right side of the machine. Read the vertical
scale to determine the fuel level.
Engine Oil
The engine oil level is measured with a dipstick. The dip-
stick is the only way to accurately determine the engine
oil level. The engine oil level should always be between
the add and full marks on the dipstick.
Hydraulic Fluid Filter Gauge
The fluid filter gauge (refer to Figure 5.5) is located on the
return line filter on the front of the reservoir. The reservoir
is behind the cowling door on the left side of the turntable.
During high pump flow situations, the gauge indicates the
condition of the filter. When the needle on the gauge is in
the red zone, its time to change the filter.
