6. Through the open hole, slowly fill the planetary with
0.65 L (22 oz) of high quality SAE 85W-140 wt gear
lube.
Important: If the planetary fills before the 0.65 L
(22 oz) of oil is added, wait 1 hour or install the
plug and move the machine approximately 10 feet
to distribute the oil through the brake system.
Then, remove the plug and add the remaining oil.
7. Install the plug.
8. Repeat the procedure on the opposite planetary/brake

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 every
400 hours thereafter. The capacity is 2.4 L (80 oz). Visually
inspect for leaks daily.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove a check plug from one end of the axle and
ensure that the lubricant is up to the bottom of the
hole
(Figure
60).
Note: If the level is low, remove the fill plug and add
enough lubricant to bring the level up to the bottom of
the check-plug holes.
