MAINTENANCE

TANK FILL

Check the sight gauge and add more hydraulic fluid
(Mobil DTE 16M or an ISO AW 68 equivalent) to
bring the level up between 1/2 to 3/4 on the gauge.
See Figure MntP-B-0004. Refill with the hydraulic
fluid that has proper viscosity for your operating
condition

Note: Your ambient temperature and operating
conditions may require a different viscosity oil.
Please consult the oil manufacturer for proper
specifications.

Blades

Check the Blades for cracks and wear and Blade Bolts for tightness, daily. Blades should be replaced when
they are worn excessively, bent, deformed, or out of balance.

Blades should always be replaced in pairs. Blades of different weights can cause serious
imbalance and damage to the machine and personnel. When replacing blades, take care to
replace the blade bolts, nuts, and washers.
