MAINTENANCE, LUBRICATION AND SERVICE
LUBRICATION
NOTE
If the vehicle is operated in sandy or dusty
environments, the spring ends should be
left dry. Dirt and grease can mix, resulting
in a "sandpaper" action that may cause
pre-mature wear to the spring ends.

Clutch Reservoir
Check the uid level in the reservoir.
Add brake uid if necessary. Use
only DOT 4 brake uid in the clutch
release system. Mixing DOT 4 brake
uid with petroleum based oil will
cause seal damage which will cause
leakage.

Clutch Bearing Linkage
Use a lithium based grease with EP
additives to specication API NLGI
No. 2.
NOTE
Inspection cover removal is necessary.
Lubricate according to Eaton's lubrication
