ENGINE
For the lubrication intervals, follow the instructions provided in the engine handbook. In all cases the
oil must be changed after the first 20 working hours, and then every 100 hours or every
season, together with the oil filter (fig. 9, oil drain plug; please, use a second key in the fixing
part). Replace the engine oil filter (A, fig. 10). The first precaution is to ensure that the engine is
correctly serviced with the air filter, cooling fins and cylinder head clean and the oil at the correct level.
Check the air filter every 4 hours, or even more often in very dusty environments. Check the engine
cooling intake grid (A, fig. 4).
HYDROSTATIC AXLE
With the engine cold, check the expansion tank (fig. 10); it must be empty. Clean the hydraulic motor
cooling fans often, every 4 working hours in summer when conditions are very dusty (fig. 5). Replace
oil after the first 50 working hours, then every 200 hours. Use 20W50 engine oil, quantity: 2.5 litres.
To replace the oil follow the instructions below:
1) remove the two plugs (fig. 6)
2) remove the oil filter plug (fig. 12) and check the filter
3) unscrew tank cap (B, fig.10)
4) unscrew the cap marked "Gear Chamber" (fig. 11)
5) add oil in position (B, fig. 10). Fix the cap marked "Gear Chamber" (fig. 11) when oil comes out
6) make sure the expansion tank is empty. Only fill the connection pipe
