Although these models are maintenance-free and can run for a long time without replenishment,
overhauling after approximately 20,000 hours or 3 to 5 years will increase gearbox’s usable life.
Condition Operation Time Interval Special Considerations
Replenishment
Less than 10 Hours Per Day Once Every 3 – 6 Months
Shorten the replenishment
