1. Unscrew the plugs (see Figure 61-A and B) to let air in.
2. Unscrew the drain plug underneath the planetary.
NOTE: Remove any steel particles from the plug that its magnet
collected.
3. Collect the oil in a leak-proof container.
4. Apply new Teflon tape and put the drain plug back in.
To fill the planetary:
1. Remove the plugs (see Figure 61)-A and B).
2. Connect the pump hose (see Figure 61-1) to the hose (see Figure 61-B) and attach it with a
clamp.
3. Pump oil into the tank until it reaches the MIN level and wait for the oil level to stabilize
(approx. 10 mins).
4. Put oil through the plug (see Figure 61-B) so that the oil level is approximately 50 mm (2 in.)
from the bottom of the tank, and then put the plugs back in.
5. Ensure that there is enough oil in the planetary:
a. Remove the access hatch on the auger (see Figure 62-A).
b. Unscrew the level plug (see Figure 62-B).
c. Using a flashlight, check that the oil inside the planetary reaches the level of the plug
opening.
d. Drain the planetary slightly if the oil level is too high, or add oil if it is too low, until the oil
reaches the correct level.
