- Clean and reinstall filler plug (1) and its
washer (Replace if necessary).
Before draining oil, operate the machine for a
few minutes so that the oil warms up.
The angle gearbox is lubricated with extreme-pressure gear oil with viscosity grade SAE 80W and API
grade GL4:
- FC3160 TCD:
2 L (0.53 US gal)
- FC3560 TCD:
2 L (0.53 US gal)
- FC4060 TCD:
2.3 L (0.61 US gal)
When draining and refilling, it is recommended to use either a mineral base oil with viscosity grade
SAE 80W and API grade GL4, or a synthetic base oil, type PAO (Poly-Alpha-Olefins) with a viscosity
grade equivalent to SAE 80W.
In certain countries SAE 80W GL4 oil may not be available. In this case a GL4 or GL5 grade SAE 80W90
oil is an acceptable substitute for GL4 SAE 80W oil.
