General

WARNING! The user must only carry out the
!
maintenance and service work described in
this manual. More extensive work must be
carried out by an authorized service
workshop.
The life span of the machine can be reduced and the risk of
accidents can increase if machine maintenance is not carried
out correctly and if service and/or repairs are not carried out
professionally. If you need further information please contact
your nearest servicing dealer.

Daily maintenance

• Check that the machine's safety equipment is
undamaged. See instructions in the section "Machine's
safety equipment".
• Always clean all the equipment at the end of the working
day. Use a heavy-duty hand-held brush or a large paint
brush.
• Make sure to keep the connectors and pins clean. Clean
with a rag or brush.
• Check that hydraulic oil level in the gauge glass is above
the lower specified limit. Add oil if necessary.
• Check that the hydraulic hoses are not leaking or bent and
that the couplings are not leaking.
• Check for any accumulated debris or dirt in the oil cooler.
Clean using compressed air or with a garden hose. Do not
use a high pressure washer directly on the cooler.
NOTICE! Do not use a high pressure washer to clean the
machine. The high pressure jet can damage seals and lead
to water and dirt permeating into the machine, resulting in
serious damage.

MAINTENANCE

Motor

The oil level must always be checked before starting the
engine. Always maintain the oil level at the full mark. Do not
fill with too much oil. Check the level daily or after 8 hours of
operation.
CAUTION! The engine holds approximately 1.4 l (1-1/2 qt/
48 oz) of oil, when both the oil and oil filter are replaced.
The hydraulic unit must always be placed on a flat surface,
when checking and replacing the oil.
Change the oil after the first 5 to 8 hours of operation. It
should then be changed after every 50 hours of running time.
The oil filter must be replaced after every 100 hours running
time.
See the instructions under the Engine oil and Oil
recommendation headings and in the instruction manual from
Briggs & Stratton.
We strongly recommend using only original spare parts from
Briggs & Stratton.
