INSPECTION
HYDRAULIC OIL
Check hydraulic oil sight gauge (Figure 10) to ensure that
hydraulic oil is at the midway level.
HYDRAULIC HOSES
Check hydraulic hoses to make sure they are not worn,
frayed or defective.
GREASE FITTINGS (BEARINGS)
Check the zerk grease fittings (Figure 11) on the bearing
housings and dump support brackets at each end of the
mixing drum. These grease fittings lubricate the dumping
mechanism. If the dumping handle is stiff or hard to move
lubricate these fittings.
GREASE FITTING (DUMP CYLINDER)
1. If your unit has hydraulic dump capability, check the
zerk grease fitting at the top of the dump cylinder
(Figure 12). This grease fitting lubricates the hydraulic
dumping mechanism.
