Paus Telescopic loaders, TL/TSL

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

Paus Telescopic loaders, TL/TSL use brake fluid with a capacity of 1 liter. The service interval for the fluid is 3000 hours. The data covers 4 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Paus Telescopic loaders TL/TSL brake fluid capacity of 1 liter applies to the hydraulic brake system across all four configurations listed.
  • A hydraulic brake system uses pressurized fluid to transmit braking force, making fluid condition critical to consistent pedal response and stopping performance.
  • The 3000-hour change interval is expressed in operating hours rather than calendar time or distance, which is standard practice for construction and industrial machinery where annual mileage is not a meaningful measure of use.
  • All four configurations share an identical 1-liter capacity and 3000-hour change interval under normal use conditions, spanning both the TL 855 and TSL 855 variants.
  • The TL 855 and TSL 855 each appear in two engine variants: the Deutz BF4L2011 meeting Stage II emissions standards for 2006-2008, and the Deutz TD2011 L04i meeting the more stringent Stage IIIa standard from 2008 onward.
  • Stage II and Stage IIIa refer to European exhaust emission tiers for non-road mobile machinery, with Stage IIIa introducing tighter limits on nitrogen oxides and particulate matter compared to Stage II.
  • Despite the engine upgrade from Stage II to Stage IIIa, the brake fluid capacity and service interval remain unchanged within each model line, indicating the hydraulic brake circuit design was carried over between engine generations.
