Check the oil level
The hydraulic system is a closed system with an oil
tank, oil pump and control valve. Check the lubricating
oil level regularly before commissioning. An oil level
that is too low can damage the oil pump.
Note:
The oil level must be checked with the splitting blade
retracted. The oil dipstick is located on the base frame
in the breather cap (12) (Fig. 13) and is provided with
2 notches. 13) und ist mit 2 Kerben versehen. If the oil
level lies at the bottom notch then this is the minimum
oil level. If this is the case, the oil must be topped up
immediately. The top notch indicates the maximum oil
level.
The splitting column must be retracted before the
check, the machine must be level.
When do I change the oil?
First oil change after 50 operating hours, then every
500 operating hours.
Replacing (Fig. 13)
