use.
The following inspections should be carried out during routine
vehicle servicing:

maintained. The oil specification recommended is BP Energol GR-
XP150 or equivalent, using approximately 0.5 litre.

connections; remove any dirt or corrosion that may have
accumulated. Check the winch for operation in both directions.
