Change the Final Drive Oil
NOTE: If the final drive oil is cold, it should be warmed prior to changing. Use the bucket as a support to lift
the track on one side. Push the throttle control lever to MIN (low idle) and operate the raised track for
5 minutes. Lower the track.

bottom of one of the final drives.
2. Prepare the machine for service. See “Maintenance
Safety” on page 2-9.
3. Wait 10 minutes for the gear oil to cool.
4. Collect a final drive oil sample. See “Collect a Final
Drive Oil Sample” on page 5-49.
5. Place a suitable container under the final drive.
6. Slowly loosen and remove the oil level plug (1) to
relieve any internal pressure.
NOTE: For final drive oil capacity, see “Fluid
Capacities” on page 5-9.
7. Remove the oil drain plug (2) and allow the oil to
drain.
8. Install the oil drain plug and tighten to 36 lb-ft (49 N•m).
9. Add new gear oil through the oil level plug opening. Fill until the gear oil is at the lower edge of the oil level
plug opening.
10. Install the oil level plug. Tighten the plug to 12.5 lb-ft (17 N•m).
CAUTION!
• Allow the final drive to cool before servicing. Hot oil may cause burns or other serious

injury.
Failure to follow these precautions could result in injury.
