Preventive Maintenance Schedule:
Refer to specific dealer or manufacturer recommended schedules, often tied to operating hours (e.g., every 250, 500, 1000, 2000 hours for major services).
Fluid Specifications
Engine Oil Type Example:
API CJ-4 or CK-4, SAE 15W-40 (common for modern diesel engines, consult manual for exact spec)
Hydraulic Fluid Type Example:
ISO VG 46 or VG 32 Hydraulic Oil (specific type crucial for hydrostatic systems)
Coolant Type Example:
Ethylene Glycol based, with corrosion inhibitors (e.g., CAT ELC or similar)
Transmission Fluid:
Linde's hydrostatic systems often use specific transmission fluids, consult manual for OEM part numbers/specs.
Known Issues
Hydrostatic System Wear:
Potential for wear over time, requiring fluid changes and filter replacements as per schedule. Early detection of leaks or performance degradation is key.
Diesel Engine Maintenance:
Standard diesel maintenance: fuel filter replacement, air filter replacement, glow plug checks, exhaust system integrity.
Hydraulic Component Wear:
Seals and hoses can degrade over time; regular inspections are important.
