Mast Channels - Lubricate
The channels on the roller-type mast require a
break-in period. Apply a light film of lubricant on
the channels where the rollers ride. This will pre-
vent metal peel until the rollers set a pattern.
Transmission Oil Level - Check
Hot oil and components can cause personal
injury. Do not allow hot oil or components to
contact skin.

reaches normal operating temperature.

idle, shift the directional control lever to forward
and then to reverse, to fill the clutches.
4. Shift the direction control lever to the NEUTRAL
position.
