Chaincases
There is a chaincase on each side of the loader. Refer to the Maintenance Interval
Chart (page 81) for change intervals. Refer to the Lubrication chart (page 56).
Checking and Adding Oil
1. Park the loader on a level surface. Stop the engine.
2. Remove the fill check plug (Figure 30)
from each chaincase cover. The oil level
should be at the plug level or no more than
1/4 in. (6 mm) below.
3. If the level is low, add fluid through the fill
plug (Figure 30) until the oil level reaches
the check plug hole. Reinstall the plugs.
Draining Oil
1. Park the loader on a level surface, or on a
sloping surface with the loader facing
downhill and the tires blocked.
2. Remove the drain plug on each chaincase
(Figure 31) and drain the oil into a suitable
container.
3. Reinstall and tighten the drain plugs.
4. Refill the chaincases at the fill plugs.
