Oil and Filter Change

Oil Fill

Refer to Figure 17 and Figure 18
A dry or fully drained system may require as much as
20 gallons (76 liters) of oil to charge the cooler, pump,
motor(s), hoses, filter and valve, and leave 13.5 gallons
(51 liters) in the reservoir.

Before adding oil, check that the drain plug

is secure,

and that there are no signs of leaks in hoses or at any
system fittings.

Oil Specification
10W-30 good quality mineral base hydraulic fluid,
viscosity 70 to 250 SUS at 210

°F (100°C)

Remove the filler cap

. Add oil until the oil level in the

reservoir, as observed on the sight gauge

, reaches the

fill line on the decal (the top edge of the horizontal
mid-border of the decal). The fill line is 10.73 inches
(27.3 cm) above the reservoir bottom. If the 858-029C
decal requires replacement, adjust the center border line
to this height.

Operate the PTO system briefly, or until the reservoir
level stops changing. See “PTO Operation” on page 8
for operations.

Recheck the sight gauge. As necessary, add oil to fill
line.

Oil and Filter Change

At a regularly scheduled oil change, also change the
filter. At initial system flush, no filter change is required.

Refer to Figure 18 and Figure 17
1.

Wait for the oil to cool before changing the oil.

Place a container with at least a 20 gallon (76 liter)
capacity under the drain plug

of the reservoir.

Carefully remove the drain plug.

Allow several minutes for oil in the filter to drain into
and out of the reservoir. Change filter as required.
See page 23 for filter size. Seat filter per
instructions on filter.

Thread the plug back into the reservoir. Seating
torque is 27 to 43 foot-pounds (37 to 58 N-m).

CAUTION

Hot Surface and Hot Fluid Hazards:
Assess the reservoir temperature before adjusting oil level.
Draining excess hot oil could result in a severe burn. If the
PTO has been operated recently, the oil temperature could be
as high as 180

°F (82°C).
