Check Hydraulic Oil Level
Oil Type: 20W-50 conventional detergent motor oil.
1. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The oil should
be up to the “FULL COLD” mark on the transmission
oil reservoirs (A, Figure 24). If the oil is below this level
proceed to step 2.
2. Before removing the reservoir cap, make sure the area
around the reservoir cap and fill neck of the reservoir is
free of dust, dirt and other debris. Remove the reservoir
caps.
3. Add oil up to the “FULL COLD” mark.
4. Reinstall the reservoir cap.
Change Hydraulic Oil Filter
Change Interval: Every 400 Hours (Initial hydraulic oil
and filter change after first 100 hours of operation)
Filter Part Number: 5101978X2
NOTE: Removing the oil filter from the transmission will
drain the oil reservoir. Have a suitable container ready to
catch any spilled oil. The manufacturer recommends this be
a dealer-only service item.
1. Locate the hydraulic oil filter (A, Figure 25) on the side
of the transaxle.
2. Remove the filter cover (C) and o-ring (B).
3. Inspect all parts for wear or damage, replacing as
necessary.
4. Remove and discard the hydraulic filter.
5. Install the new filter, new o-ring and filter cover. Torque
the cover to 40-45 ft. lbs. (54-61 Nm).
6. Add new hydraulic oil to the hydraulic oil reservoir, until
the “FULL COLD” mark is reached.
7. Run the unit for several minutes and check the
transmission oil level and add as necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Use caution after changing the filter; air
in the hydraulic system may affect the responsiveness of the
control levers.
