CAUTION
Transmission damage can result from
extended operation at low fluid level
conditions.
NOTE
Do not overfill the transmission.
Overheating, oil foaming out of the
breather, and power loss may occur if
driven while transmission is overfilled.
Only use fluids meeting Allison
Transmission specification TES 295 or
TES 389 in the transmission. For a list of
currently approved transmission fluids,
go to the Allison Transmission web site
at: www.allisontransmission.com, select
SERVICE, Fluids.
Allison Transmission recommends the
following into consideration when
selecting the appropriate fluid type for
your transmission:
• Fluids meeting specification TES 295
are preferred over TES 389 fluids for use
in all 3000 and 4000 Product Families
transmission applications.
• TES 295 fluids are fully qualified for
Severe Duty and Extended Drain
intervals.
• A TES 295 fluid allows you to operate
at a lower ambient temperature than a
TES 389 type fluid. For transmission oil
temperatures refer to Transmission
Temperature section.
• A TES 389 fluid is the minimum fluid
requirement approved for use in 3000
and 4000 Product Families
transmissions.
• To extend the TES 389 fluid drain
intervals beyond the recommended
mileage or hours change interval, use a
fluid analysis program.
• When choosing a fluid type to use,
consider what the minimum fluid
operating temperature of the fluid will be
based on the ambient temperatures
reached in the geographical location for
the vehicle.
Even though transmission fluid is not
consumed during transmission
operations engine oil might be, periodic
fluid level checks should be made prior
to placing the vehicle in service or just
after returning from service. Periodic
fluid level checks help prevent
mechanical failure of a vehicle or
transmission component. Periodic
checks also help to detect fluid leaks,
cooler failure (contaminating the
transmission fluid), fluid overfill, fluid
underfill or the wrong kind of fluid used
the last time the transmission was
serviced.
Check the transmission fluid level using
the dipstick. The dipstick is marked with
temperature bands for a COLD and HOT
fluid level check. The fluid check marked
COLD is designed to allow the fluid level
to be checked from 16° C (61° F) to 60°
C (140° F).
There are two temperature bands
marked on the dipstick to allow for
