8.2.2 Gearbox oil
The gearbox is supplied with sufficient oil by the
manufacturer. With horizontally mounted
implement and after having removed the oil drain
plug (1) the oil level should be visible on the
lower edge of the hole. A refilling of oil normally is
not necessary.
External symptoms, e. g. fresh oil spots on the
parking place or on machine parts and/or loud noise
development, however, indicate an oil leakage of the
gear box housing. Search for reason, care for remedy
and refill oil.
For refilling oil
- lift the spreader horizontally,
- remove oil drain plug (1),
- refil oil (until lower edge of the hole),
- Screw in oil drain plug (1).
Oil filling quantity: 0,35 l SAE 90

• 1. oil change after 50 hours of operation.
then oil change every 500 to 800 hours of operation –
at least, however, once a year.
