B. Axle Oil Change
NOTE: At the 1000 Hour Interval Oil Change also inspect the brake disk
wear. Refer to “Brake Disk Inspection” on page 142 and follow the inspec-
tion procedure. After brake disk inspection is complete, reassemble the
level plugs using new o-rings.
1. Level the vehicle, ground the carriage, place the travel select lever
in (N) NEUTRAL, move neutral lock lever to NEUTRAL LOCK posi-
tion, engage the parking brake switch and shut off the engine.
2. Clean the area around the axle drain plug, the axle fill plug and the
axle level plugs (Figure 96).
3. Place a receptacle under the axle drain plug. Remove the plug from
the axle housing and allow the oil to drain completely.
4. Transfer the oil to a container with a cover and label the container
as used oil. Dispose of properly.
5. Clean off the axle drain plug and re-install. Remove the axle fill plug
and the axle level plugs from the axle housing. Check brake disk
wear at this time. Refer to “Brake Disk Inspection” on page 142.
6. Fill the axle with Universal Tractor Fluid through the axle fill hole
until the oil level is even with both axle level holes (Figure 96).
See chart of approved fluids on page 140. The axle capacity is 9.5
quarts (9 liters). Fill axle slowly, the oil has to run across the differ-
ential. Allow time for the oil to run across the differential. Axle level
is correct when oil is up to both level plugs.
7. Reassemble the level plugs (Figure 96) using new o-rings.
8. Re-install the axle fill and axle level plugs into axle housing.
