JCB 3C2 - Hydraulic sight tube level capacity?

Post #1 by Yozza » Wed May 16, 2012 9:13 pm

Ay up folks.

I've just put all the hydraulic oil back in (via my lady's tights :oops: ) plus another fresh 20l. The oil level is just visible in my sight tube inside the cab. It's about an inch up the tube, and I believe it should be about 2/3 of the way up the tube?

If so, how much oil would I approximately need to take it up to the required level, I'm asking so I know how much to buy.

Again, thanks in advance :thumbup:
