LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
be used, as shown in Figure 42 Use the largest tank
feasible and keep it as full as possible to minimise
condensation.
If bulk storage is not possible and the fuel is stored
in barrels keep them in a clean, dry place. The
barrel in use should be fitted with a fuel outlet filter
and a drain tap, and should be supported so it
slopes downward 1/2 inch per foot of length away
from the tap.
After use, install the cap at the top of the barrel and
clean up fuel which may have been spilled. Diesel
fuel will not evaporate and thus will collect dust and
dirt.
REFUELING THE TRACTOR
If there is no filter on the outlet of the storage tank,
filter the fuel through a 1 0O-mesh screen or finer
when filling the tractor fuel tank. Keep the tractor
tank as full as possible to minimise condensation.
NOTE: It is a good practice to fill the tractor fuel
tank with fuel at the end of each day, as this will
reduce overnight condensation. Also, any fuel which
may have been spilled should be cleaned up.
LUBRICANTS
Type of lubricant to use;
Transmission, Rear Axle
Final Reduction, Hydraulic System:
SAE 80
Power Steering Oil:
ISO VG32
Front Axle Oil:
SAE 80
Engine Crankcase:
Service Grade CD
SAE 10W30, for year around use
or
SAE 20W for use -5°C-25°C
SAE 30 for use 1O°C-35°C
Front Wheel Bearings and All
Lubrication Fittings:
NLG I GRADE 2 EP
GREASE WITH LITHIUM SOAP
NOTE: Use the following chart to determine which
SAE Grade engine oil to use:
In areas where prolonged periods of extreme
temperatures are encountered, local lubricant
practices are acceptable, such as the use of SAE
5W(CC) in extremely cold temperatures or the use
of SAE4O(CD) or SAE5O(CD) in extremely high
temperatures.
IMPORTANT; Engine crankcase oil drain intervals
should be adjusted downward when diesel fuel
sulphur content is over 0.5%.
Consult your dealer for details of Engine Crankcase
Oil usage
LUBRICANT STORAGE
Your RANSOMES Tractor is equipped with lubricant
filters to protect vital points from damage caused by
dirt which may enter under normal operating
conditions. Precautions must, however, be taken by
you to prevent lubricant contamination by dirt or
water during storage. Service intervals in this
section are based on the assumption that only new
oil, of the type specified, is used.
