Oil change in final drives
STEP 1
Put a suitable size container under the drain plug.
Before draining oil from the epicyclic reduction gear, turn
the latter so that the oil plug (4) is in the top position (A).
Loosen the plug a bit to release any internal pressure.
Turn the reduction gear with the plug (4) in the bottom
position (B).
Remove the drain plug and drain out all oil.
IMPORTANT: Dispose of oil and filters according to local
law requirements. DO NOT drain oil on the ground, into a
drain or into a container that can leak. Be responsible for
the environment.
STEP 2
Turn the reduction gear until the hole (4) is the position
as shown in the figure.
Fill up with prescribed oil.
The oil must reach the level of the plug.
Tighten the plug to the prescribed torque value.
STEP 2
To drain the oil from the central casing, remove the level
plug (1) first and then the drain plug (2). Drain out all oil.
Clean the plug (2) and screw it back in place at the indi-
cated torque value.
IMPORTANT: Dispose of oil and filters according to local
law requirements. DO NOT drain oil on the ground, into a
drain or into a container that can leak. Be responsible for
the environment.
STEP 3
Remove the oil filler plug (1) and fill with oil of prescribed
type up to the level hole.
Wait for oil to flow to the axle, then check its level and
fill up if required.
Re-tighten the plug (1) to the required torque value.
