Check Hydraulic Fluid Level

With digging boom fully raised, check hydraulic
fluid at sight glass (1) before each use. If low, add
SAE15W40 with PowerUp additive until fluid level
is at mid-level in sight glass. Clean dust from cap
(2) by blowing with low pressure air.

Add 16 oz (0.47 L) of Power Up oil additive or equivalent to 8 gal (30.28 L) of SAE15W40 for use as
hydraulic fluid. Fill hydraulic reservoir to correct level on sight glass.

Check Hydraulic Fluid Cooler

Check hydraulic fluid cooler before each use. If
dirty, clean by blowing with low pressure air. For
extensive cleaning, remove cover.

NOTICE:

Hydraulic reservoir can become
pressurized. OPEN SLOWLY.

Use SAE15W40 with additive for
hydraulic fluid in these machines.

Contact your Ditch Witch dealer for Power
Up additive.
