7.12.1.3 Lubricant
The drive wheel gearbox lubricant should be
changed after the first 50 hours. Check the level
every 200 hours or annually and change every
1000 hours. The windrower should be on level
ground when checking lubricant level.
a. Check the lubricant as follows:
1. Rotate wheel so that one of the plugs (A) is
horizontally aligned with the center of the
hub.
2. Remove the plug. The oil should be visible
through the hole or slightly running out.
NOTE
Type of lubricant used after first lubricant
change is different from factory supplied
lubricant.
3. If lubricant needs to be added, remove the
second plug (B), and add lubricant until
lubricant runs out at (A). Prior to first
change, use SAE 85W-140, API Service,
Class GL-5, Extreme Pressure Gear
Lubricant. After first change, use SAE 75W-
90, API Service, Class GL-5, Fully Synthetic
Transmission Lubricant (SAE J2360
preferred).
4. Replace plugs and tighten.
b. Change the lubricant as follows:
1. Rotate the wheel so that one of the plugs (A)
is located at the bottom.
2. Place a large enough container (about 2
quarts U.S. (2 litres) under the drain plug
(A).
3. Remove top plug (B) and drain lubricant.
Ideally, the lubricant should be at operating
temperature for good draining.
4. When lubricant has drained, rotate wheel so
that one of the plugs (A) is horizontally
aligned with the center of the hub. See
illustration opposite.
NOTE
Type of lubricant used after first lubricant
change is different from factory supplied
lubricant.
5. Add lubricant through (A) until lubricant runs
out of hole at (B). Use SAE 75W-90, API
Service, Class GL-5, Fully Synthetic
Transmission Lubricant (SAE J2360
preferred). Drive wheel gearbox capacity is
1.5 qts. U.S. (1.4 litres).
6. Replace both plugs and tighten.
