ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
This vehicle will give years of satisfactory service, provid-
ing it receives regular maintenance. Refer to the Periodic
Service Schedule for appropriate service intervals (Ref.
Fig. 17 on page 14). Refer to Lubrication Points for
appropriate lubrication locations (Ref Fig. 12 on page 9).
Some maintenance items must be serviced
more frequently on vehicles used under severe
driving conditions.
Use maximum of three pumps of grease
for each grease fitting - Over greasing
may damage grease seals.
Putting more than three pumps of grease in a grease fit-
ting could damage grease seals and cause premature
bearing failure.
REAR AXLE
The only maintenance required for the first five years is
the periodic inspection of the lubricant level. The rear
axle is provided with a lubricant level check/fill plug
located on the bottom of the differential. Unless leakage
is evident, the lubricant need only be replaced after five
years.
Checking the Lubricant Level
With the vehicle on level ground, clean the area around
the check/fill plug and remove plug. The correct lubricant
level is just below the bottom of the threaded hole. If
lubricant is low, add as required. Add lubricant slowly
until lubricant starts to seep from the hole. Install the
check/fill plug. In the event that the lubricant is to be
replaced, the vehicle must be elevated and the oil pan
removed or the oil siphoned out through the check/fill
hole
(Ref Fig. 13 on page 10).
