Eaton/Dana Axle Lubrication
•
The original mineral-based
lubricant must be drained within
3000-5000 miles (4800-8000
km) on all Eaton axles. This
initial change is very important
because it ushes out break-in
contaminants that might otherwise
cause premature wear.
• No initial drain is required on
Eaton axles that are factory lled
with an Eaton-approved synthetic
lubricant.
• Mineral-based lubes must be
drained within the rst 5000 miles
(8000 km) if converting to an
Eaton-approved synthetic lube.
• Change the lubricant within the
rst 5000 miles (8000 km) of
operation after a carrier head
replacement, regardless of the
lubricant type.
• Refer to the Eaton Field
Maintenance Manual for a
particular axle for lubricant
specications.
• See your dealer for
Eaton-approved lubricant brands.
• Refer to the chart below for
lubricant change interval.
