Cold Weather Warm-Up
NOTE:
If hydraulic oil is cold, hydraulic functions move slowly. Do not attempt machine operations until hydraulic functions move at close-to-normal cycle times.
In extremely cold conditions, an extended warming up period will be necessary.
Avoid sudden operation of hydraulic functions until engine is thoroughly warmed up. Remove ice, snow, and mud from machine before operation.
1.
Run engine at 1/2 speed for 15 minutes.
2.
Cycle all hydraulic functions to distribute warmed oil until all functions operate freely.
