19. Refill the oil reservoir to the “MAX OIL LEVEL HOT”
line. Use either Mobil 1, 15W-50 synthetic oil or
Castrol Syntec 5W-50 oil. DO
NOT use conventional
oils. Make sure area around the reservoir is free of
dust, dirt, or other debris.
20. Reinstall the left drive tire and remove the jack
stands. Lower the seat plate.
21. Make sure the parking brake is engaged, the control

22. Start the engine and run it in the slowest throttle
position. Dismount the machine and raise the seat
plate.
23. Carefully watch the oil level in the reservoir while the
machine in running. The level will initially drop quick-
ly as the oil coolers are being filled. Do not allow the
oil level to drop below 50% of the full capacity.
24. With the cap removed, look through the filler neck of
the oil reservoir and watch for oil flow at the return
line barbs. Once there is a continuously flow of oil,
the return side of the hydraulic system has been

the “MAX OIL LEVEL HOT” line.
