Maintenance

Checking and Draining Oil

Check the oil level through the top plug
(1). The oil should be level with the hole.
Add oil if necessary.

Drain oil through the bottom plug. Oil
should be darined immediately after driving
while it is still hot.

WARNING

Hot oil can cause severe burns. Do not
allow hot oil to contact the skin. When
changing oil, wear protective gloves.

NOTE! Also check the rear axle vetilation
for blockage. A blockage can cause over-
pressure in the axle and start oil leaks.

T0008128

Hub Reduction

If the axle is equipped with hub reduction,
when changing oil, each hub must be emp-
tied separately. Turn the wheel until the
drain plug (2) is its lowest position. Re-
move plug and drain.

Fill oil through the level/fill plug (1) hole.
Fill each hub reduction before filling oil in
the rear axle.
