- Lubrication Schedule
- Daily Maintenance
- 1. Check fluid level of tractor hydraulic system before starting each day’s operation. If necessary, add hydraulic oil as recommended in your tractor operator’s manual.
- 2. Daily, unless conditions justify more frequent greasing, lubricate all twelve grease fittings; one at each end of lift boom arms and one at rod and base ends of each lift and bucket cylinder.
- 3. After every ten hours of operation, check all hardware and tighten where required.
