Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or hot components to contact the skin. |
Obtain the Sample and the Analysis
In addition to a good preventive maintenance program, AVSpare recommends using S·O·S oil analysis at regular scheduled intervals in order to monitor the condition of the hydraulic system and the maintenance requirements of the hydraulic system.
Each oil sample should be taken when the oil is warm and when the oil is well mixed in order to ensure that the sample is representative of the oil in the hydraulic system.

At operating temperature, the hydraulic tank is hot and under pressure. Hot oil and components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil or components to contact skin. Remove the filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and the filler cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand. Remove the filler cap slowly in order to relieve pressure. |
- Open the engine access door on the right side of the machine.
- Sampling port (1) is for the hydrostatic transmission and the hydraulic system.

Refer to Special Publication, PEHP6001 for more information on obtaining a good oil sample. Consult your AVSpare dealer for complete information and assistance in establishing an S·O·S program for your machine.
The recommended interval for oil samples is every 500 hours. The recommended hydraulic oil change interval is 2000 hours. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "S·O·S Oil Analysis".
