•Clean around the base of the trans- mission oil filter and remove the filter by turning it counterclockwise.

•Apply a light coating of clean trans- mission oil to the gasket of the new filter. Install the filter by turning it clockwise, by hand, until the gasket contacts the filter base on the trans- mission housing; then tighten the filter an additional 1/2 turn.

•Clean the area around the Transmission Oil Fill/Dipstick to prevent debris from entering the transmission case.

•Remove the dipstick and slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube. Fill the transmission case until the oil level reaches the “Full” mark on dipstick.

•Reinstall the dipstick securely into the oil fill tube.

•Start the engine and allow it to run for a few minutes. Shut the engine off, then check for leaks and recheck the oil level in the transmission case.

Important Information: The service life and reliability of any machine depends upon the care it is given. Proper lubrication is a very important part of that care. The maintenance schedule reflects the minimal require- ments to maintain the equipment. More frequent inspections and mainte- nance is preferable.

Using the lubrication illustration as a guide, make certain that all lubrication fittings are installed and functioning.

Be sure all fittings are free from dirt and paint so the lubricant is certain to enter the bearing.

Using a pressure lubricating gun, always force the lubricant through the full length of each bearing until it emerges at the end, carrying with it the worn lubricant and any dirt that may have entered the bearing.

Miscellaneous working parts not provided with lubrication fittings should be oiled regularly with a good grade of lubricating oil.

Always lubricate the tractor thoroughly before taking it to a remote location for a prolonged period of time.

Lubricant is cheap. Use plenty of it. Worn parts can be expensive to replace.

Keep your supply of lubricating oil and grease stored in clean containers, and covered to protect from dust and dirt.

Keep the lubricating gun nozzle clean and wipe dirt from the grease fittings before lubricating.
