CHANGING FRONT AXLE AND FINAL REDUCTION GEAR CASE OIL

Change the front axle and final reduction gear case oil after every 300 hours of operation. The total dry capacity of both gear cases and the axle housing is approximately 2.3 kg (2.4 l).

Change the front axle and final reduction gear case as follows:

•Operate the tractor for a short period to warm the oil to the normal operating temperature. Place the tractor on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and stop the tractor engine.

•To prevent debris from entering the front axle housing, clean the area around the oil fill plug/ dipstick and the axle drain plug located at the center front of the axle. Refer to Figure 46 and Figure 48.

•Place a suitable container beneath the front of the axle housing.

•Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick to help vent the axle, then remove the drain plug and allow the oil to drain into the container. Reinstall the drain plug after draining the oil. See Figure 48.
