Note: Cleanliness is necessary whenever you work on the hydraulic
equipment. Ensure that you clean the hydraulic components, hoses,
connections, and fittings.
3. Label all the disconnected hydraulic lines and hoses for proper installation
after repairs are completed.
4. Record the position of the hydraulic fittings (especially elbow fittings) on the
hydraulic components before removal.
Note: Mark the parts, if necessary before removal and ensure that they are
aligned properly when installing the hydraulic fittings, hoses, and tubes.
Before disconnecting or doing any work on the hydraulic system,

components that are left open or exposed to prevent hydraulic system
contamination. Cap or plug the opening as soon as the opening is exposed.
1. Check the hydraulic-fluid level in the hydraulic tank and add correct quantity

unit Operator's Manual.
Drain and fill the hydraulic tank and change the oil filter if the
component failure is severe or the system is contaminated; refer to
the traction unit Operator's Manual.
2. Lubricate the O-rings and seals with clean hydraulic fluid before installing
the hydraulic components.
