MAINTENANCE
AIR FILTER
1. The air fi lter element should be cleaned because a
clogged air cleaner can cause poor engine starting,
lack of power and shorten engine life substantially.
2. To clean or replace air fi lter loosen the wing nut on the
air fi lter housing (Figure 21) remove the cover and take
out air fi lter cartridge. If only cleaning of the air fi lter
is desired blow through the air fi lter cartridge from the
inside, moving a jet of dry compressed air up and down
until all dust is removed.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM INSPECTION AND SERVICE
1. Check motor and pump for any damage.
2. Check hoses and pipes for proper tightness and make
sure there are no leaks.
3. Check nylon tubes for hydraulic oil intake and drain.
Retighten brass nut if loose and if a leak is detected.
If leak continues after retightening, replace nylon tube,
nut and sleeve.
4. Check oil tank for proper oil level using the hydraulic
system oil level gauge (See Figure 6). Make sure
hydraulic oil has not whitened or emulsifi ed. Whitish
color means aeration in pump. Retighten pipe and
correct level of oil. Emulsifi cation means water in the
hydraulic oil. Replace the oil.

2. Check oil tank level daily.
3. Check the machine for oil leak and proper function of
lever, cables, and links daily.
