MAINTENANCE
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
REAR AXLE
The only maintenance required for the first five years is the periodic inspection of
the rear axle for lubricant leakage. Unless leakage is evident, the lubricant need
only be replaced after five years. Refer to the Service and Repair Manual for the
fluid replacement procedure.
Checking the Lubricant Level
Clean the area around the check/fill plug and remove plug. The correct lubricant
level is just below the bottom of the threaded hole. If lubricant is low, add lubricant
as required. Add lubricant slowly until lubricant starts to seep from the hole. Install
the check/fill plug. In the event that the lubricant is to be replaced, the oil pan
must be removed or the oil siphoned through the check/fill hole.
LUBRICATION
Do not use more than three (3) pumps of grease in any grease
fitting at any one time. Excess grease may cause grease seals
to fail or grease migration into areas that could damage com-
ponents.
Putting more than three pumps of grease in a grease fitting could
damage grease seals and cause premature bearing failure.
