Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250-500 operating hours, depending on operating conditions and oil type. Refer to manual for exact intervals.
Transmission Fluid Change:
Varies significantly by transmission type, generally around 1000-2000 hours. Manual is critical for this.
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
Typically every 1000-1500 operating hours. Fluid cleanliness is paramount.
Engine Oil:
Typically SAE 15W-40 API CF-4 or higher rated diesel engine oil. Manual will specify exact API and viscosity.
Hydraulic Fluid:
Typically a Universal Tractor Transmission Fluid (UTTF) or ISO VG 46 hydraulic oil, depending on the integrated transmission/hydraulic system. Manual is essential for correct fluid type.
Coolant:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze with corrosion inhibitors. Typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Manual will specify type and capacity.
Common Wear Points:
As with many tractors, common wear points can include clutch wear, hydraulic pump efficiency, and linkage wear on controls. Regular maintenance prevents many issues.
