CAUTION
Risk of damaging the rotary drive!
If the oil is cloudy, water has intruded and the oil must be changed im-
mediately. Drain and thoroughly flush the drive repeatedly with the new
oil before refilling.

A too high oil level in the main gear is an indication of a defect in the
planetary gears. Shut down the rotary drive and repair.
