Renault Master 4
Oil level, maintenance period
Tip
Only use the recommended oil and lubricant types.
Oil level
Before operation or after an extended period of inactivity, check the hydraulic oil
level in the tank 1, using the graduated gauge, and refill if necessary.
As a guideline, we recommend using ISO H46 grade biodegradable hydraulic oil, a grade
equivalent to that of mineral oil in accordance with VDMA 24568. It is very important
to choose an oil with a nominal viscosity prescribed for the ambient working temperature.
The oil level check is carried out with the tipper raised, according to the safety
instructions with the safety stay engaged STAY.
Note: the oil reservoir level check 1 is carried out with the tipper raised to maximum height. The oil level must be slightly
above the "MIN" level. If the level needs to be adjusted, consult your authorised dealer.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to use vegetable oils or additives containing substances
different to the product used. Do not mix any different products.
Maintenance period
Check that the tipper operates correctly: any parts that are out of order or damaged
must always be replaced before the vehicle is used.
Depending on the vehicle, check that the audible warning works correctly. If the audible
warning is out of order, do not use the tipper raising/lowering control and contact
an approved dealer.
Check the condition of the oil hoses. If they are worn or broken, replace them with
new, original parts.
Every six months
For the tri-tipper version, grease the hinges of the tipping cylinder located underneath
the tipper using a pump provided for this purpose.
Monthly maintenance table
Carry out these operations monthly.
Hydraulic system maintenance |
Check the oil level in the reservoir in the maximum rear tipping position (with the
strut fully extended, the oil level should be above the "MIN" mark).
If necessary, top up with mineral oil: use ISO H46 biodegradable grade oil or a grade
equivalent to that of mineral oil in accordance with VDMA 24568.

Check for signs of hydraulic leakage. |
Check the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil (the presence of water or impurities may
impair the proper functioning of the tipper).
