Lubrication Service Schedule
WARNING: BE CERTAIN THAT ALL POWER IS SHUT OFF BEFORE SERVICING THE GRAIN CART
90 DEGREE REAR GEARBOXES:
Gearbox lubricant has been added to the gearboxes during final assembly. Recheck the lubricant level
before initial operation of the grain cart, then periodically according to use. For the gearbox on the left while looking from the rear of the
cart, the fluid level should be between the bottom and halfway point of the 2” output shaft that bisects the gearbox. The recommended
fluid level range is pictured in Figure 1 and Figure 2 below. The minimum level is pictured in green and the maximum level is pictured in
red. An pressure relief plug plug is located in the center of the top of the gearbox mount plate. To check the fluid level, remove the vented
inspection plug and view the fluid level from above. When filled to the maximum level (shown in red), the gearbox should have 80 ounces
of
SAE 80W-90
lubricant. Change the oil annually before use.
For the gearbox on the right while looking from the rear of the cart, the fluid level should rest at the inspection plug, pictured in red in Figure
3 below. When filled to the proper level, the gearbox should have 80 ounces of
SAE 80W-90
lubricant. Change the oil annually before use.
3-WAY FRONT GEARBOX:
Gearbox lubricant has been added to the gearbox during final assembly. Recheck the lubricant level before
initial operation of the grain cart, then periodically according to use. The fluid level should rest at the inspection plug, pictured in blue in
Figure 4 below. When filled to the proper level, the gearbox should have 96 ounces of
SAE 80W-90
lubricant. Change the oil annually before
use.
