Marks on sight glass, 6830 and 6930 tractors

A - Minimum mark

B - Maximum mark

C - Mark, 10 liters (2.6 U.S. gal.) above max.

D - Mark, 10 liters (2.6 U.S. gal.) below min.

To operate large hydraulic cylinders such as those used on tipping trailers, 10 liters (2.6 U.S. gal.) of oil may be drawn from the transmission case through the connecting lines.

This figure applies when the oil in the transmission case is at the minimum mark on the sight glass. If the oil is at its maximum level, an additional 5 liters (1.3 U.S. gal.) may be withdrawn from 6530, 6534 and 6630 tractors and an additional 10 liters (2.6 U.S. gal.) from 6830 and 6930 tractors.

Never perform heavy jobs such as towing, operating a PTO or driving fast when withdrawal results in the oil level dropping below the minimum mark.

If required, a further 10 liters (2.6 U.S. gal.) may be added to the transmission case of 6530, 6534 and 6630 tractors and a further 15 liters (4.0 U.S. gal.) to that of 6830 and 6930 tractors; this increases the amount that may be withdrawn accordingly. If oil level is above the maximum mark on the sight glass, do NOT perform any transport tasks at speeds above 40 km/h (25 mph).

During oil withdrawal, the tractor should not be inclined in any direction by more than 18°. If the tractor is inclined by more than 18°, only a correspondingly lower quantity of oil may be withdrawn.

For refilling, use only John Deere HY-GARD® Transmission and Hydraulic Oil or its equivalent.
