To fill the hydraulic system with oil:

1. Add oil to the system reservoir.

The reservoir will need filling several times.

2.Run the engine for a couple minutes to cycle oil throughout the system. Add more oil as required.

3.Repeat as necessary.

Tips

It takes 3-4 quarts to fill the hydraulic system when new, and somewhat less when changing the oil.

Remove the oil reservoir cap to speed oil draining.

When re-filling the system, raise the saw halfway up, and then lift the rear of the saw until the Blade Collars touch the ground. This will speed the filling process.

1.After filling the system, jack the saw up so the drive wheels are off the ground. Start the saw, and move the joystick half way into FORWARD, to purge air out of the system.

!

NOTE

If the Blade Shaft is drained completely, it will require approximately 1 gallon to refill. If the transaxle is drained as well, it will require approximately one additional gallon.
