3.5 Fill the pump with oil
3.5.1 Fill the drive end cover
Refer to Figure 2. We recommend that the oil-level in the drive end cover is maintained between the minimum and
maximum level marks on the oil-level sight-glass (16).
If the oil-level is above the maximum mark, the performance of the HV pump may be affected. If the oil-level is below
the minimum mark, the performance of the HV pump may be affected or the pump may be damaged.
1. Refer to Figure 2. Remove the oil filler-plug (4) from the filler port on the top of the drive end cover.
2. Pour new oil of the correct type (see Section 2.6) through the filler port and into the end cover until the oil-level
reaches the maximum level mark. If the oil level goes above the maximum level mark, drain oil from the pump
until the level is correct: refer to Section 5.7.
3. Refit the oil filler-plug (4) to the filler port on the top of the drive end cover.
3.5.2 Fill the non-drive end cover
Refer to Figure 2. We recommend that the oil-level in the non-drive end cover is maintained between the minimum
and maximum level marks on the oil-level sight-glass (16).
If the oil-level is above the maximum mark, the performance of the HV pump may be affected. If the oil-level is below
the minimum mark, the performance of the HV pump may be affected or the pump may be damaged.
1. Refer to Figure 2. Remove the oil filler-plug (8) from the filler port on the top of the non-drive end cover.
2. Pour new oil of the correct type (see Section 2.6) through the filler port and into the end cover until the oil-level
reaches the maximum level mark. If the oil level goes above the maximum level mark, drain oil from the pump
until the level is correct: refer to Section 5.7.
3. Refit the oil filler-plug (8) to the filler port on the top of the non-drive end cover.
3.5.3 Fill the shaft-seals oil reservoir
1. Refer to Figure 2. Open the vented oil filler-plug at the top of the shaft-seals oil reservoir (3).
2. Pour new oil of the correct type (see Section 2.6) through the filler port and into the reservoir until the oil-level
reaches the top of the reservoir. Do not over-fill the reservoir; if you do, take care to mop up and dispose of any
excess oil.
3. Close the vented oil filler-plug at the top of the shaft-seals oil reservoir (3).
Ensure that the correct grade of oil is used and that the oil-levels in the HV pump are correct. If
an incorrect oil is used or if an oil-level is incorrect, pump performance may be affected and the
pump may be damaged, which will compromise its constructional safety and invalidate its
certification.
