Lubrication Requirements
Eaton Fuller transmissions are designed so the internal parts operate in a bath of lubricant circulated by the motion of gears and
shafts. Thus, all parts will be amply lubricated if these procedures are closely followed:
•
Use Roadranger CD50 or equivalent E500 synthetic per Eaton publication TCMT-0021.
•
When adding lubricant, types and brands of lubricant should not be mixed because of possible incompatibility.
•
Use clean lubricant and clean containers when filling the transmission. Containers that have been used for antifreeze or
water should not be used for transmission lubricant.
•
Additives and friction modifiers are not recommended for use in Eaton Fuller transmissions.
Includes all Roadranger Approved comparable synthetic lubricant.
Proper Lubricant Level
Note:
Failure to adhere to Eaton Installation Requirements may effect transmission performance and /or warranty coverage.
Note:
The quantity for proper fill level will vary from model to model.
Make sure lubricant is level with fill hole opening. Because you can reach lubricant with your finger does not mean lubricant is at
the proper level. (On heavy duty transmissions, one inch of lubricant level equals about 8 pints of oil).
