4.7.13 MAINTENANCE EVERY 2000 HOURS OF OPERATION
4.7.13.a CHANGING THE OIL IN THE TRAVEL REDUCTION GEARS
Carry out these operations together with those to be performed EVERY 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 HOURS.
• Soon after the machine has been stopped the oil is very hot; let the oil cool down until it reaches a tem-
perature of 40-45°C before changing it.
• Oils, filters, coolants and batteries are considered special waste and must be collected and disposed of
according to the anti-pollution regulations in force.
• On new machines, change the travel reduction gear oil af-
ter the first 250 hours of operation and successively every
2000 hours.
This operation must be carried out with the machine on level
ground at a temperature of 40-45°C, so that the oil is more fluid
and can be drained easily together with the suspended solid parti-
cles.
1 - Move the machine until the drain plug (1) is on the vertical axis
in low position.
2 - Remove the drain plug (1) and let all the used oil flow into a
container with suitable capacity.
While the oil flows out, remove the level plug (2).
Use a 8 mm hexagon spanner.
3 - After draining the oil, put back the plug (1) and pour new oil of
the recommended type through the hole (2) until reaching the
lower edge of the hole itself.
4 - Put back the plug (2).
Carry out some movements, stop the machine and check the lev-
els again.
Use only the prescribed oil.
