MAINTENANCE
OM 0472SB-A [18]
Gearbox and Reduction Box
When servicing either the gearbox or the
reduction box, the sealing of the casing must
be restored. To do so, apply a layer of silicone
to the casing before closing it. Allow the
silicone to cure for at least 24 hours before
filling it with oil.
Oil Level – Oil Filling (Figure below)
To check oil level: Remove oil level plug, check
if the oil is flush with the plug. If not, remove
the oil filler plug and fill until the oil flows
through the oil level plug hole. Reinstall both
plugs.
Oil Change (Figure below)
Change the oil in the gearbox and in the
reduction box once a year.
1. Remove oil filler plug.
2. Remove oil change plug and let oil flow
through until only small drops are coming
out.
3. Reinstall oil change plug and remove oil
level plug. Fill gearbox/ reduction box with
SAE 80W90 oil, AGMA 5EP extreme
pressure oil or equivalent, until oil reaches
oil level plug. Reinstall oil level plug, then
oil filler plug.
NOTE: For reduction box, take the lower oil
change plug.
