Discussion:
Which oil and quantity

Hello everybody,

We have to service some hyster forklift and I have to know which oil and which quantity goes inside.
Model is H5.00XM, year 1999, serial number K005A0xxxxx. It has Perkins engine 1004.42 and hydrostatic transmission. Now I need to know which oil to use for hydraulic system and engine.
Hydraulic gradation: 32 / 46 / 68 ???
Hydraulic oil exchange quantity ? in Litres ?
Engine oil: 15W40 (we use it already for 1004.4 Perkins engines)

Are there any other oils in this machine ? If yes please tell me where and what kind of.

Thank you!

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
