Fill Hydraulic Tank
Fill Hydraulic Tank with Oil:
1.DO NOT START TRACTOR until you have filled Hydraulic Oil Tank to a level as shown in Sight Glass gauge and fill the Suction Hose to Pump with Oil.
2.Remove Filler Cap. Remove Filler cap only when ready to fill hydraulic Tank with Oil. Do Not leave the Cap off and the system Open, always keep system closed when possible. Avoid any oil contamination. (See
Figure 1)
3.Avoid Hydraulic Contamination by filtering the Hydraulic Oil while filling the Hydraulic Tank. Filter bug- gies or carts are commercially available for Hydraulic system cleanup and Oil transfer. These consist of high capacity filter, a Circulating Pump, a Drive Motor and hoses for connecting to the units hydraulic system. When adding Oil always use Clean new Oil from a sealed container, If you suspect the Oil of being contaminated don't use it. (See Figure 2 & 3). It is best to always use a filter system when adding even new oil.
4.When adding Oil in the field keeping it clean is critical, do not use dirty funnels or hoses. Do Not open Hydraulic tank or any containers unless the openings have been cleaned first. The outside of the containers must be clean. If a windy dusty day do not fill and allow dirt to blow into oil. Always add Oil using a pump system with at least a 10 Micron filter system. (See Figure 4)
