Hydraulic System Oil Level – Check

At operating temperature, the hydraulic tank is hot and under pressure. Hot oil and components can cause personal

injury. Do not allow hot oil or components to contact skin. Remove the filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the

filler cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand. Remove the filler cap slowly in order to relieve pressure.

The hydraulic tank is on the right rear corner of the machine.

1. The counterweight should be fully retracted when you check the oil level.

2. Maintain the oil level to the “FULL” mark in sight gauge (1).

3. If the hydraulic system requires additional hydraulic oil, remove filler cap (2) and add oil. Clean filler cap (2) and

install filler cap (2).

Hydraulic System Oil Sampling

Refer to the tractor’s operation and maintenance manual for the specific procedures regarding Hydraulic System Sampling.

Oil Filter Inspection

Figure 48: Oil filter.

Use a Filter Cutter - CAT# 4C-5084, or similar to cut the filter element open. Spread apart the pleats and inspect the element

for metal and other debris. An excessive amount of debris in the filter element can indicate a possible failure.
