ments. Most of the procedures are also referred to

dures, refer to the engine manual provided.
PRECAUTIONS
DO NOT perform any maintenance or repair without
the owner’s prior authorization. Allow only trained
personnel to service the machine.
Warranty repairs can only be done by an authorized
GEHL dealer. Dealers know what portions of the
machine are covered under the terms of the GEHL
Warranty and what portions are covered by other ven-
dor warranties.
When a problem occurs, do not overlook simple caus-
es such as an empty fuel tank. Check for leaks and bro-
ken connections. Make note of any specific symptoms,
noises, etc. and contact your local Gehl dealer.
IMPORTANT: Always dispose of waste lubri-
cating oils, anti-freeze and hydraulic fluids
according to local regulations or take them to a
recycling center for disposal. DO NOT pour them
onto the ground or into a drain.
DEALER SERVICES
The following areas of internal components service
replacement and operating adjustments should only be
by (or under the direction of) an authorized GEHL
Telescopic Handler dealer.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT service or repair major
components, unless authorized to do so by your
GEHL dealer. Any unauthorized repair will void
the warranty.
POWER TRAIN COMPONENTS
The engine and transmission are coupled directly to
each other. All service routines related to the internal
components are precise and critical to proper power
train operation. The axle differential and planetary
ends are also sophisticated assemblies that require spe-
cial know-how and tools for servicing.
IMPORTANT: If any power train components
are suspected of faulty operation, contact your
GEHL dealer for assistance.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Valves, pumps, motors and cylinders are also sophisti-
cated assemblies which require special know-how and
tools for servicing. All cylinders are appropriately
designed with particular strokes, diameters, checks and
hose connection provisions unique to the machine
application requirements. A schematic (Maintenance
chapter) can be used as a guide for service reference, as
required.
