Draining
Drain the transmission while oil is warm. To drain the oil, remove the magnetic drain plug.
Clean the drain plug before re-installing it.
Refilling
Clean the case around the oil fill plug, remove the plug and refill the transmission to the level
of the filler opening.
The quantify of oil necessary to refill the transmission depends on the transmission angle. So,
refill the transmission with the vehicle on a flat and leveled surface.
Do not fill the transmission above the recommended level. This will cause oil to be forced out
of the case through the front bearing cover, the control cover, the shift lever housing, etc.
Oil level inspection
Everytime the oil level is being checked, clean the area around the filler plug and, if necessary,
add sufficient oil to maintain the proper oil level.
WARNING! Do not mix oils of different types and brands, because of possible
incompatibility.
