1. Park the machine on a level surface, move the
motion-control levers to the N
EUTRAL-LOCK
position, engage the parking brake, and lower
the hopper.
2. Shut off the engine, and remove the key. Allow
the engine to cool.
3. Open the cowl.
4. Use the sight window to check the fluid level in
the expansion tank.
Note: The fluid level should be at the fill line
on the decal.

5. If the oil level is low, remove the cap lock
and cap from the top of the expansion tank
and add enough of the specified hydraulic fluid
to raise it to the proper level.
Note: Ensure that the expansion-tank fluid
level is at the proper level. Overfilling the tank
may cause fluid to purge out of the breather
hole.
6. Install the cap and cap lock. Wipe up any
spilled hydraulic fluid.
