Hydraulic System Refer to the Maintenance Interval Chart (page 113) for service intervals. Refer to the Replacement Parts chart (page 72) for filter part numbers.
WARNING
Before servicing the hydraulic system, be sure the lift arm is lowered.
Checking Hydraulic Oil Level Inside the engine compartment, the loader has a sight gauge located at the right rear of the chassis. Check the fluid level with the lift arm lowered and attachment bracket on the ground (Figure 18). Add hydraulic oil as required in the hydraulic oil fill tube. Refer to the Lubrication chart (page 77). Replace the fill cap. Figure 18 Sight Gauge and Fill Tube
Changing Hydraulic Oil Filter The hydraulic filter element is located to the right of the radiator/cooler, against the side of the chassis. To change hydraulic filter element: 1. Park the loader on a level surface. Shut off the engine and remove the key. 2. Open the reservoir drain plug, located on the inside bottom of the right riser (Figure 20). 3. Drain the hydraulic oil out to a level below the point where the filter attaches to the reservoir.

Note: Unbolt the water separator from the chassis for greater access to the hydraulic filter, if needed.
