IMPORTANT: Routine checks will help prevent downtime. The operator can aid in preventive maintenance by documenting all leak and malfunction problems. Since the transmission operates in oil, it is very important to keep oil clean and at correct level at all times.

  1. Operate engine at approximately 1000 rpm for at least one minute.

  2. Move rockshaft lever full forward to lower hitch all the way down.

  3. Stop engine and wait an additional three minutes before checking oil level.

  4. For Sync Shuttle transmission only :

    Remove dipstick (A) and wipe it clean. Insert dipstick fully. Oil level should be between full mark and end of dipstick.

    If oil level is below the lower mark, remove filler cap and add oil.

  5. For PowrReverser™ transmission only :

    Wipe sight glass clean and check oil level. Oil level should be in between Full mark (B) in upper window and Add mark (C) in lower window.

    NOTE: As long as Add mark (C) in lower window is full, there is no requirement of oil top up. Full mark (B) in upper window is the full oil level indicator, beyond that oil is not required to be filled.

    Add oil from oil filling port (D) if oil level is low.

  6. Install transmission-hydraulic oil filling cap.
