6.6.1 Power Take-Off lubrication
It is important that the Power Take‑Off splines are
lubricated correctly.
Power Take‑Off lubrication depends on the chassis cab
to which bodywork is fitted.
Dennis Eagle Elite 2 chassis cabs are normally fitted
with self lubricating Power Take‑Off which uses an oil
supply from the transmission.
Other manufacturer’s chassis cabs may be fitted with
one of the following options (refer to chassis‑cab
service manual for further information).
1. Self lubricating Power Take‑Off which uses an oil
supply from the transmission.
WARNING:
THE GREASE NIPPLE ROTATES WHEN THE
ENGINE IS RUNNING.
2. Power Take‑Off with grease nipple (see Fig. 6‑2, 4).
Use grease gun to apply Spline Lubricant Chelsea

3. Power Take‑Off without grease nipple.
It will be necessary to remove the hydraulic pump
fixings and carefully manoeuvre the pump to
expose the splines and apply Spline Lubricant
Chelsea Part No. 379688 or Castrol Optimol Paste
White ‘T’ to the splines.
6.6.2 Power Take-Off propeller
