LUBRICATION

Lubricating the Cables

If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation.

If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil begins to escape from the bottom.

Tip: Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape it so that it seals against the sheath and allow the cable to hang vertically from the bag overnight. If you do not succeed in lubricating the cable, it must be replaced.

Shaft Bushings and Linkage

Lubricate the bearing of the shafts and linkage for brake system and steering with oil spray or oil can.

Lubricating in Accordance with the Lubrication Schedule

8011-565

1. Hydraulic System, Oil Level

The hydraulic oil and filter must be replaced every 300 hours, and at least once a year. Contact an authorized service workshop.

Check the oil level in the hydraulic tank daily. The level shall be about 3/4"-1"

(19 - 25 mm) below the top of the tank.

Check connections, hoses, and tubes for damage or leaks. Replace or repair if doubtful.

Changing Oil and Filters

Oil and filter changes should be carried out by an authorized service workshop due to the risk of impurities entering the system.

2. Driver’s Seat

Tip the seat.

Lubricate the front hinges using an oil can.

Lubricate the lengthways adjustment mechanism with the oil can.

Lubricate the lengthways adjustment runners with the oil can.

Checking the hydraulic oil

WARNING!

If a leak is suspected, use a piece of cardboard or wood, NOT your hands, to check for leaks.

Escaping hydraulic oil under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin, causing serious injury.

If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered immediately.
