4000?D Service Manual

Add Hydraulic Fluid

Capacity of the hydraulic reservoir is approximately 9.3
gal. (35.2 L). With machine on a level surface, hydraulic
oil level should be 1/4 to 1/2 inch below arrows on sight
glass, when oil is cold. Warm oil should be even with ar-
rows on sight glass. If level is low, add hydraulic oil. Re-
fer to Hydraulic Oil Specifications (Fig. 51).
1. Remove seat lock pin, raise seat and hold open with
support rod.
2. Clean around reservoir filler cap (Fig. 52). Remove
cover and add hydraulic oil until it is even with arrows on
sight glass (Fig.51).
IMPORTANT: To prevent contamination, clean top
of hydraulic oil containers before puncturing. As-
sure pour spout and funnel are clean.
3. Install reservoir cover, lower seat and secure with
lock pin.
