4.1.8Check hydraulic oil level:

Service Interval: 40 hr.

a)Stop engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.

b)Tilt seat up.

c)Clean area around hydraulic reservoir cap and remove cap. Oil level should be to the top of the baffle inside the tank. If not, add oil. Use only Mobil 1 15W-50 synthetic motor oil. Replace hydraulic reservoir cap and tighten until snug. Do not overtighten.

NOTE: The baffle is labeled “HOT” and “COLD”. The oil level varies with the temperature of the oil. The “HOT” level shows the level of oil when it is at 225°F (107°C). The “COLD” level shows the level of the oil when it is at 75°F (24°C). Fill to the appropriate level depending upon the temperature of the oil. For example: If the oil is about 150° F (65°C), fill to halfway between the “HOT” and “COLD” levels. If the oil is at room temperature (about 75° F (24°C)), fill only to the “COLD” level.
