(e) Always do the transmission oil level checks with the speed of the
engine at idle. The transmission must be in the neutral position and
the transmission temperature between 180° F and 200° F (82.2° C
and 93.3° C).
(4) Do not put too much fluid in the transmission!
C. Lubricant and Filter Change Interval
(1) Refer to Section 1.13 for the lubrication schedule.
(2) Use the Dana-Clark Filter.
(3) Change the hydraulic transmission oil and filter after the first 50 hours of
transmission operation. After the first transmission oil and filter change,
the change interval is 500 hours or 3 months of operation. Change the
lubricant at the 1000 hours or 6 months of operation point.
When you operate in cold weather areas or at the initial startup, the
transmission oil is cold and thick. This can cause the oil to intermittently
bypass the filter.
