Recommended lubricants
Oils and lubricants
The Volvo lubricants have been specially developed to fulfil the demanding operating conditions, in which Volvo CE’s
machines are used in. The oils have been tested according to Volvo CE’s specifications and therefore meet the high
requirements for safety and quality.
Other mineral oils can be used if they conform to our viscosity recommendations and meet our quality require-ments. The
approval of Volvo is required, if any other oil base quality (e.g. biologically degradable oil) is to be used.

when filling and changing. The mineral oil content in bio oil should not exceed 2%. If changing from mineral oil to bio oil,
contact a workshop authorised by Volvo CE.
NOTE!
When starting the engine in an ambient temperature lower than 0 °C (32 °F), be sure to use engine oil of SAE 10W, SAE
10W/30 and SAE 15W/40, even though the ambient temperature goes up to 10 °C (50 °F) more or less in the day time.

Fuel quality requirements


The fuel should at least meet the legal requirements, and national and international standards for marketed fuels, for
example: EN590 (with nationally adapted temperature requirements), ASTM D 975 No 1D and 2D, JIS KK 2204.
Sulphur content: According to legal requirements (the sulphur content must not exceed 0.3 percent by weight).
Bio-diesel fuel
Vegetable oils and / or esters, also called “bio-diesel”, (e.g. rape-seed methyl ester RME fuel), which are offered on certain
markets both as pure products and as mixed into the diesel fuel.
A higher intermix than 5% of bio-diesel fuel may cause:

 Increased emission of nitrogen oxide, (thereby not meeting le-gal requirements)


 The short service life of motor and injection system
 Increased fuel consumption
 Altered engine output
 Shortening the engine oil change interval to a half
 Shortened service life of rubber materials in the fuel system
 Less good cold handling properties of the fuel
 Limit storage time for the fuel, which may cause clogging up of the fuel system if the machine is laid up for a longer
period

Warranty condition
The warranty does not cover damage caused be an intermix of more than 5% of bio-diesel fuel.

EXC, EW180B [GB]

Elimination of trapped hydraulic pressure


WARNING
Hot hydraulic oil and hydraulic oil under pressure may result in severe personal injuries

Elimination of trapped pressure


The hydraulic system may contain high trapped pressures even if the diesel engine is off. Be extra careful when
working on the system between valves and hydraulic cylinders or between valves and hydraulic motors.
Before working on the hydraulic system, the system should be depressurized as follows:

1. Park the machine on solid ground. The most suitable position for the attachment may vary depending on which
type of bucket or other attachment that the machine is equipped with. It's important that the digging equipment is
positioned in such a way that no pressure can build up in the hydraulic cylinders due to the weight of the digging
equipment and attachment. The bucket cylinder should be in one of the end positions when the attachment is
placed in resting position. Support the attachment if needed. A suitable position for most equipment is service
position C, see 091 Service positions.
2. Stop the diesel engine.
3. Check that the control lockout lever is raised.
4. Turn the ignition key to position 1.
5. Move the right control lever forward (=boom down) and to the left and right (=bucket in and out) using full
strokes.
6. Move the left control lever back and forth (=dipper arm in and out) and to the left and right (=slew left and right)
using full strokes.
7. Move all pedals back and forth using full strokes.

NOTE!
It's important that the pressure is released for all movements immediately after stopping the diesel engine. If the
accumulated servo pressure should be insufficient, charge the accumulator by starting the diesel engine and
repeating steps 3 - 7. This is to ensure that the hydraulic system has been depressurized and is pressureless.

Elimination of pressure in accumulator for servo circuit


The machine is equipped with an accumulator for servo pressure. Before working on the hydraulic system, the servo pressure
should be eliminated as follows:

1. Park the machine in any service position, see 091 Service positions.
2. Stop the diesel engine.
3. Turn the ignition key to position 1.
4. Check that the control lockout lever is raised.
5. Move one of the levers at least 15 times using full strokes.
6. Turn the ignition key to position 0.
7. Lower the control lockout lever.

Elimination of pressure in accumulators for brake circuits


The machine is equipped with two accumulators for the brake circuits (one for each circuit). Before working on the brake
system, the brake pressure should be eliminated as follows:

1. Park the machine in any service position, see 091 Service positions.
2. Stop the diesel engine.
3. Make sure that the brake pedal's catch is released.
4. Press down the brake pedal completely and hold down for at least 3 seconds in each end position - repeat at least
20 times.
5. Lower the control lockout lever.

Elimination of pressure in the hydraulic oil tank.


Before any hose with tank connection is removed, the tank pressure should be eliminated as follows:

1. Release any trapped pressure in the hydraulic oil system, according to "Elimination of trapped pressure".
2. Release the servo pressure, according to "Elimination of pressure in accumulator for servo pressure".
3. Remove the ventilation filter.
4. Install the ventilation filter.
