Maintain the oil level within operating range (X), between the "ADD" mark and the "FULL" mark on the oil level gauge.
When the engine is stopped and the oil is cold (ambient temperature), maintain the oil level on the "ENGINE STOPPED COLD OIL" side of the oil level gauge. This method should be used as reference only, before the engine is started.
When the engine is running and the oil is hot (operating temperature), maintain the oil level on the "ENGINE LOW IDLE HOT OIL" side of the oil level gauge. This procedure is the only accurate way to check the oil level. Note: When you are operating the machine on severe slopes, the quantity of oil in the power train can be increased up to 10 percent. When you are operating with the increased oil quantity, prolonged operation in some machines can cause high power train oil temperatures. After the work on the severe slopes has been completed, drain the excessive oil quantity from the bevel gear case.
