coolant.

Chaincases
The chaincase contains the drive sprockets and drive chains. There are two plugs
in each chaincase. One is to drain the fluid and the other is to check the fluid
level. Refer to the Maintenance Schedule chapter (page 97) for change intervals.
Refer to the Lubrication topic (page 65) for information on oil type and quantity.
Checking and Adding Oil
1. Park the loader on a level surface.
Stop the engine.
2. Remove the check plug from each
chaincase housing. If the oil can be
reached with the tip of your finger, the
oil level is adequate.
3. If the level is low, add fluid through
the check plug until the oil level
reaches the edge of the hole. Reinstall
the check plug.
Draining Oil
1. Raise the rear of the machine to aid in
draining the chaincases.
2. Remove the drain plug on each chain-
case and drain the oil into a suitable
container.
3. Reinstall and tighten the drain plugs.
4. Refill the chaincases at the check
plugs.
