CARE AND MAINTENANCE

LUBRICATION

DRIVE SYSTEM:

The gears in the HydroGear gearbox are permanently lubricated using a special grease which completely eliminates the need for any type of maintenance.

The HydroGear BDU-10L Series 70 hydrostatic transmissions are serviced with any high quality 10W30 motor oil. The oil is filtered by a 10 micron oil filter. Recommended service interval for filter is after the first 250 hours of operation, then after every 400 hours of operation. If the system becomes contaminated by dirt of other foreign debris, both oil and filter must be replaced immediately.

IMPORTANT: Protect your investment:

Use Dixon P/N 5565 hydrostatic transmission oil filter ONLY.

The use of generic filters on the hydrostatic transmission oil system is not recommended. While any number of automotive filters may fit the thread pattern on the filter head, these filters contain high pressure relief valves which will not permit oil flow to the transmissions. This will result in an air /oc/cwith possible damage.
