Your CT7-23 Turbo just crossed 500 hours and nobody can find the service list, which is what this Gehl CT7-23 Turbo operator manual PDF puts back in your hands: 108 pages, Form No. 913343, for this telescopic handler. Maintenance fills roughly a third of the book, running from the daily checks through the 50, 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 hour intervals and finishing on the hydraulic and electrical schematics you trace when a function quits. Load charts, attachment load zone charts, the signal lamp panel and the steering mode selector are explained before the boom leaves the ground. Change the engine oil filter and the 15-micron hydraulic return cartridge every 500 hours, clean the dry air filter every 50, and torque the suction strainer cover to 60 ft.-lbs. (81 Nm). One wrong filter can cost you a hydraulic pump. Searchable text and section bookmarks come with it; buy once and the file stays yours for this machine.
