6.3 Gearbox Lubrication
The oil level should be approximately half the depth of the gear drive, for the parting line for horizontal mounting, or to
the shaft centerlines if mounted other than horizontally.
To change the oil, remove the drain plug and let the oil drain out. Then replace the drain plug and add 28 oz. of 80W‑90
API GL5 gear lube.
6.4 Hydraulic Cylinders and Valves
All cylinder and valve hose connections should be tight and leak free. If the area near a hose connection becomes
oily or dirty, repairs should be made to seal the leak. Hoses should be free of cracks or cuts to ensure safe operation.
Cylinder seal kits are available from your dealer to repair a leaky cylinder. Pin connections should be free of excessive
wear. If pins become worn they should be replaced. Also check yokes and mounts for cracks and wear.
WARNING: Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can be almost invisible and can have sufficient
force to penetrate the skin. When searching for suspected leaks, use a piece of wood or cardboard
rather than your hands. If injured, seek medical attention immediately to prevent serious infection or
reaction.
