3. Make sure the oil plug, filling is facing upwards and
open it.

gearbox on page 132.
4. Turn axis to 85 degrees. Oil should now start to run

degrees, to little oil in axis means oil will not spill
over until after 85 degrees.

equipment on page 133.
Further information about how to
fill the oil may be found in the
section Filling, oil, axis 6 on page
