Oil Grades

For ambient temperatures of approximately -10ºC to +50ºC (14º to 122ºF) a gear oil
of ISO 220 at 40ºC with mild high-pressure additives should be used, DIN 51502
CLP 220, e.g. BP ENERGOL GR-XP 220, Esso Spartan EP 220, SHELL Omala Oel
220, Mobilgear 630, or Aral Degol BG 220.

At high or lower ambient temperatures, the type of oil used should be adapted to the
specific conditions. Contact the Autoquip Customer Assurance department.

Grease Lubrication

If the gearbox casing is filled with low-viscosity grease, it is recommended that this
be changed after every 10,000 hours of service.

1. Open the gearbox casing and flush it thoroughly with a commercial cleaning agent.

2. Fill the casing with new grease. The required quantity of grease is indicated on the

gearbox data plate.

Grease Quality

For ambient temperatures ranging from approximately –10ºC to +50ºC (14º to 122ºF) a
low-viscosity gear grease with a dripping point of approximately 150ºC (300ºF) and a
worked penetration of 380 to 430 1/10 mm should be used, e.g., DIN 51502 GP 00F,
z.B. BP Energrease HT EP00, SHELL Special low-viscosity gear grease H, Esso Fibrax
EP 370, or Aralub FD 00.
