8.0 Maintenance
8.1 General remarks on maintenance and maintenance work :
Steps must be taken to ensure that all safety regulations are adhered to in the execution of maintenance
work!
Careful machine maintenance guarantees far greater functional reliability and increases the life of all important
components. The necessary input is minimal in relation to the faults and problems which can occur as a result of
failure to perform maintenance work.
• The engine and machine must be thoroughly cleaned before performing any maintenance work.
• Maintenance work may only be performed when the engine is at a standstill.
• When working with the hydraulic system, this must first be depressurized.
• Before working on the electrical system, detach the battery, cover it and protect with insulating material.
• Check the electrical equipment of the machine at regular intervals. Defects such as loose connections or
melted cables must be remedied immediately and replaced by new ones.
• Only carry out maintenance and repair work when the machine is positioned on an even surface capable of
bearing loads and safeguarded against rolling away.
• Adhere to the prescribed maintenance and inspection procedures in the operating instructions, including
instructions in the exchange of parts. This work may only be performed by specialized personnel.
• Oil and fuels must not be permitted to seep into the ground or sewage system during maintenance work.
These must be collected using suitable means and disposed of in an environmentally responsible
manner.
Remarks on the hydraulic system:
Avoid dirt or other contaminants entering the hydraulic system. Even the smallest dirt particles in the hydraulic
pipework can lead to tremendous impairment to hydraulic units and so to costly repairs.
• Should it be discovered during the daily check of the hydraulic oil level that the oil level is sinking,
the complete hydraulic pipework must be checked immediately for leaks.
• Leaks must be repaired immediately. If necessary, inform the responsible after-sales service.
• If possible fill the hydraulic system with filling aggregate.
• Clean screw joints, the filling cap and its surroundings before removal to prevent the ingress of
dirt particles.
• Do not leave the tank cap open unnecessarily to prevent foreign bodies entering the system.
8.2 Running in regulations :
Maintenance after 25 hours of operation:
• Check all screw connections and tighten if necessary.
• Check hydraulic hoses and the complete hydraulic oil system for leaks.
• Exchange the fuel filter. (Fig. 18, Section 10.7))
• Engine : See maintenance instructions Kubota D-1703!
