MAINTENANCE PLAN 196 1 2 DANGER RWA34460 3 RWA34460 • After stopping the engine, with the machine in the correct position for the performance of maintenance operations, eliminate the residual pressures from the equipment (by moving the controls more than once) and from the tank (by slowly loosening the filling cap). • Let the oil cool down until it reaches 40÷45°C before carry- ing out any maintenance operation. • Immediately clean any area dirty with oil. RWA34460 3 This operation serves to let the condensate accumulated on the tank bottom flow out of the tank itself; for this purpose, carry out the following operations in the given sequence: 1 - Remove the screws (1) and the platform (2).
Use a 17 mm spanner. 2 - Loosen the filling cap (3) to release the residual pressure from the tank. Use a 24 mm spanner. 3 - Remove the drain plug (4) until the condensate has flown out of the tank completely. Use a 41 mm spanner. 4 - Put back the filling cap (3) and the platform (2). 4 RWA34470 4 RWA34470 IMPORTANT • The draining of the tank must be carried out at tempera- tures exceeding 0°C, before starting the engine; when the temperature is below 0°C, the hydraulic oil tank must be drained at the end of work, or in any case when the tem- perature of the machine is sufficiently high to prevent the condensate from freezing and allow it to flow out of the tank without problems.
