Planetary Hub
The planetary hubs should be checked periodically to
ensure they contain the proper amount of gear lube.
Two drain/î›™ll plugs are located on the outer end of each
planetary hub. The planetary hub is mounted on each
side of the front axle. You will need an assistant to
properly check the gear oil level:
1. With assistance from a ground guide, slowly drive
the machine forward until the planetary hub plug is
at the 3 o’clock or 9 o’clock position. (Figure 5-2)

2. Shut off the engine and apply park brake.
3. Unscrew the planetary hub plug.
4. Oil should be level with bottom of plug hole.
5. Fill if needed and reinsert plug.
6. Replace the level plug.
7. Allow the axle to sit level for at least î›™ve minutes to
allow the oil to ow to the hubs.
8. Remove the level plug and check oil level.
9. Add more oil if needed.
