Check the Planetary Hub Oil Level
The oil in the four planetary hubs (two on each
axle) must be maintained at the proper level to
provide lubrication for the outboard planetaries.
To check the planetary hub oil level, rotate the tire
so that the check plug, 1, is at the 3 o’clock
position. Remove the check plug and see if oil
runs out or is level with the plug opening. If no oil
runs out, the hub requires oil. Remove the fill
plug, 2, and add oil until it runs out of the check
plug, 1.
Check the differential oil level when the tractor is
on a level surface and has been stationary for
one hour to allow the oil in the axle and planetary
hubs to level out.
Buhler Versatile recommends 85W140 GL5 oil
be used in temperatures above 0
°
C (32
°
F) or
80W90 GL5 in temperatures below 0
°
C (32
°
F).
This oil is available from your Buhler Versatile
dealer.

OPERATION 25
Check Tire Air Pressure
It is extremely important that tires (singles, duals,
or triples) are kept at proper inflation pressures,
based on the load being carried by the tires.
A special tire gauge capable of measuring low
pressure,0 to 1.4 bar (0 to 20 PSI), is available
from your Buhler Versatile Dealer.
NOTE: If the tires are ballasted with a calcium
chloride/water solution, check pressure with
the valve stem at the top of the tire.
See the “Tire Load and Inflation Tables” in
Section 5 of this manual for the proper inflation
pressures.
