for the hydraulic system oil is available in 2/3 oz.
(20 ml) bottles. One bottle is sufficient for 4-6 gal
(15-22 1) of hydraulic oil. Order part no. 44-2500

Checking the Rear Axle

Lubricant

Note: This procedure is for Model 03544 only.
The rear axle of Model 03544 has three separate
reservoirs which use SAE 80W-90 weight gear
lube. Although the axle is shipped with lubricant
from the factory, check the level before operating
the machine.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the 3 check plugs from axle (Figure 29
and Figure 30) and make sure lubricant is up to
bottom of each hole.
