PROCEDURE FOR FILLING GEARBOX OIL LEVEL
• Ensure that you are using the correct grade gearbox oil for the ambient temperature that the drive unit will be operating in. (See page 33)
• Ensure that you have checked the serial tag to determine the quantity of oil that the gearbox holds. (See page 31 for serial tag location)
• Ensure that the gearbox is horizontal and the drain plug facing vertically up. (Image 1)
• Tilt the gearbox at approximately 45 degrees to the horizontal by lifting the output shaft end. (Image 2) This should allow the correct
volume of oil to be decanted into the gearbox. If the gearbox oil starts to weep out the filler hole, before reaching the required quantity,
then increase the tilt angle of the gearbox and continue to decant oil until the correct quantity is applied.
