|---|---|---|---|
| closed | Should we replace hydraulic filter? It's not mentioned in the manual but it seems like something you may want to change? | Jim Brink | Per discussion Tuesday 5/29 we will top off resevoir and run as-is for a few months then replace oil |
| Closed | Top off oil reservoirs, oil machine and follow maintenance in manual as far as I can tell all reservoirs should have ISO 68 (Way) oil. | Will wait until next maintenance cycle | |
