Caution
:
There is a
risk of burns
on the hot gear unit,
and a
risk of scalding
when draining the oil!
Provide for suitable protection measures!
Screw off aeration and ventilation filter or remove top screw plug on one side of the housing, open oil drain plug
and catch oil in suitable vessel.
Fit drain plug with new copper seal and screw back into housing.
Fill gear unit with oil, see also Chapter 8.
Replace oil filler plug or aeration and ventilation filter.
Material damage
Possible damage to the gear unit by defective lubrication due to incorrect or mixed
oils.
When carrying out an oil change always refill with the oil type previously used!
It is not permitted to mix different makes or mineral and synthetic oils, in particular
hydrocarbon oils must not be mixed with polyglycols. The mixtures may become
resinous or agglutinate and then precipitate into the gear unit.
11.5 Checking gear unit condition
This check must only be carried out by qualified operating personnel or the MS-Graessner service department.
Here it must be possible to assess reliably what exactly needs to be replaced on the gear unit, or it must be de-
termined that all gear unit components are in order.
