Front Axle Oil
Front drive axle has a common oil level for front differ-
ential housing and each wheel reduction unit. Oil level
should be checked every 50 hours of tractor operation
and replaced after every 600 hours.
FIG. 131: To Check Oil Level-Park the tractor on level
ground and then remove the oil level plug, 1. Oil should
be level with or slightly below the level plug opening.
Remove the fill plug, 2, and add oil until oil is expressed
from the level plug opening. Replace the level plug and
fill plug.
To Change Oil-Remove the drain plug, 3, from both
wheel reduction units. When all oil has drained out,
replace the drain plugs and fill the housing to the level
plug opening. Replace the level plug and filling plug.
