LUBRICATION
SECTION 6
6. Lubrication
The internal gearset of the D5 SMART is lubricated by means of an oil bath.
The D5 SMART does not require routine oil changes. However, in the event
of the unit losing oil due to stripping down or mechanical damage, the correct
replacement oil is Castrol Syntrax Long Life 75W-90.
If the gearbox is bolted down in the horizontal position during filling,
the correct level is reached when the oil level has reached the stepped section
of the dipstick.
40ml of oil is sufficient for lubrication purposes.
