Use a drain pan to aid in the removal of all used oil and particles. Remove oil drain plug to
drain oil from the hydraulic transmission system. Examine oil for metal chips as a
precaution to future problems.
Read dipstick to determine the maximum and minimum of the oil level. Low oil can damage
the oil pump. Overfilling can result in excessive temperature in the hydraulic transmission
system.
