Gearbox and Transfer Box
Power Shuttle Gearbox
To ensure proper lubrication and operating temperatures it is
most important that appropriate lubricants are used and that the
correct oil level is maintained. Refer to Lubrication Schedule
for correct oil.
The only routine maintenance required is weekly checking of
gearbox oil level using the dipstick (A) accessed through the
right hand engine cover, and changing oil and filter at the
specified intervals, as detailed in the Lubrication Schedule.
Do not overfill the transmission as this may result in oil
breakdown due to excessive heat and aeration from the
churning action of the gears.
Early breakdown of the oil will result in heavy sludge deposits
that block oil ports and build up on splines and bearings. Over
filling may also cause oil leaks.
Checking Oil Level
Drive the machine for approximately one minute. Stop the
engine and check the gearbox oil level within one minute of
stopping the engine.
Changing Oil
When draining gearbox oil the oil should be warm but not hot!
Ensure container used to drain the oil into is of sufficient
capacity to hold the oil.
Drain oil by removing the strainer (B). Clean strainer (B) using
a suitable solvent.
When refitting strainer (B), renew gasket (C) and apply Loctite
242 to bolts (D).
Before fitting a new filter (E), smear seal (F) with transmission
oil. Screw the new filter onto the gearbox and tighten using
hands only.
