5.5 MAINTENANCE
Hydraulic Oil Check Procedure
Lube Point(s) - Hydraulic Reservoir
Reservoir Capacity - See Table 5-8.
Lube - Hydraulic Oil
Interval - Check Daily
NOTE: Check the hydraulic oil level with the platform in the stowed
position ONLY. Be certain the hydraulic oil has warmed to oper-
ating temperature before checking the oil level in the reservoir.
1. On the left side of the machine, remove the side access
door on the base frame. Locate the hydraulic oil reservoir
(1) on the pump unit (2). Check the oil level in the hydraulic
reservoir by looking at the markings on the side. The reser-
voir is marked with a MAX (maximum) marking (3). The oil
level must be kept at or within one (1) inch of this marking to
operate properly.
2. If additional oil is required, wipe all dirt and debris from the
filler/breather cap (4) area, add proper grade of oil. Fill until
oil level is close to the MAX marking (3), but not over the
MAX marking.
NOTE: Care should be taken not to introduce any impurities (dirt, water,
etc.) while cap is removed.
NOTE:
Recommended lubricating intervals are based on machine oper-
ations under normal conditions. For machines used in multi-shift
operations and/or exposed to hostile environments or condi-
tions, lubrication frequencies must be increased accordingly.
