REMOVAL
Hydraulic oil in the system can be under
pressures over 3000 psi with the engine
OFF. ALWAYS relieve pressure in
hydraulic lines before attempting to
remove any component in the hydraulic
system. With engine OFF, starter switch
in RUN position, and MLRS attachment on
the ground, move control levers through
all operating positions several times to
relieve line pressure. Relieve pressure
in hydraulic oil reservoir by loosening
filler cap very slowly. Failure to
follow these precautions could result in
serious personal injury.
At operating temperatures, hydraulic oil
is hot and under pressure. Hot oil can
caaue injuries. Allow oil to cool before
disconnecting any hydraulic lines.
