Every 800 hours/Yearly (whichever comes first)
or yearly, whichever comes first.
Use a high-quality, SAE 85W-140 gear lube.
1.
With the machine on a level surface, position a
wheel so a check plug is at the lowest (6 o'clock)
position

When all of the oil has drained from both
locations, install the plug in the brake housing.
5.
Rotate the wheel until the open plug hole in the
planetary is at the 12 o'clock position.
6.
Through the open hole, slowly fill the planetary
with 0.65 L (22 fl oz) of high quality SAE
85W-140 gear lube.
Important:
0.65 L (22 fl oz) of oil is added, wait 1 hour
or install the plug and move the machine
approximately 3 m (10 ft) to distribute the oil
through the brake system. Then, remove the
plug and add the remaining oil.

Install the plug.
8.
Repeat the procedure on the opposite

Checking the Rear-Axle
Lubricant
Service Interval: Every 400 hours
The rear axle is filled with SAE 85W-140 gear lube.
Check the lubricant level before you first start the
engine and as recommended. The capacity is 2.4 L
(80 fl oz). Visually inspect for leaks daily.
1.
Position the machine on a level surface.
2.
Remove a check plug from the end of the axle

and ensure that the lubricant is up to the bottom
of the hole
Note:
add enough lubricant to bring the level up to the
bottom of the check-plug holes.
