8 Dana Incorporated TSM-0238 - 6000 Transmission Service Manual
INTRODUCTION
FOREWORD
This manual has been prepared to provide the customer and the maintenance personnel with information and instructions on
the maintenance and repair of the SPICER OFF-HIGWAY PRODUCTS product.
Extreme care has been exercised in the design, selection of materials, and manufacturing of these units. The slight outlay in
personal attention and cost required to provide regular and proper lubrication, inspection at stated intervals, and such
adjustments as may be indicated, will be reimbursed many times in low cost operation and trouble-free service.
In order to become familiar with the various parts of the product, its principle of operation, troubleshooting and adjustments, it
is urged that the mechanic studies the instructions in this manual carefully and uses it as a reference when performing mainte-
nance and repair operations.
Whenever repair or replacement of component parts is required, only Dana Incorporated approved parts as listed in the appli-
cable parts manual should be used. Use of “will-fit” or non-approved parts may endanger proper operation and performance
of the equipment. Dana Incorporated does not warrant repair or replacement parts, nor failures resulting from the use of parts
which are not supplied or approved by Dana Incorporated.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To reduce the chance of personal injury and/or property damage, the following instructions must be carefully observed.
Proper service and repair are important to the safety of the service technician and the safe reliable operation of the machine. If
replacement parts are required, the parts must be replaced by spare parts which have the same part number or with equivalent
parts. DO NOT USE A SPARE PART OF LESSER QUALITY.
The service procedures recommended in this manual are effective methods for performing service and repair.
Some of these procedures require the use of tools specifically designed for the purpose.
Accordingly, anyone who intends to use a spare part, service procedure or tool, which is not recommended by Dana Incorpo-
rated, must first determine that neither his safety nor the safe operation of the machine will be jeopardized by the spare part,
service procedure or tool selected.
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS FURNISH THE DISTRIBUTOR WITH THE SERIAL AND MODEL NUMBER WHEN ORDERING PARTS.
TOWING OR PUSHING
Before towing the vehicle, be sure to lift the driven axle wheels off the ground or disconnect the driveline to avoid damage to
the transmission during towing.
Because of the design of the hydraulic system, the engine cannot be started by pushing or towing.
IMPORTANT:
