( A) Operating Range “ENGINE STOPPED OIL COLD”
(B) Operating Range “TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL ENGINE AT LOW IDLE AND OIL AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE”
Check transmission system oil level gauge (2) while the engine is operating at low idle and while the oil is at operating temperature. Use side (B) of oil level gauge that is labeled “TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL ENGINE AT LOW IDLE AND OIL AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE”. Maintain the oil between the "ADD" and the "FULL" markings. Note: When you are operating the machine on severe slopes, the quantity of oil in the transmission can be increased up to 10 percent. When you are operating with the increased oil quantity, prolonged operation in some machines can cause high transmission oil temperatures. After the work on the severe slopes has been completed, drain the excessive oil quantity from the transmission gear case.
If necessary, remove transmission system oil filler cap (1), and add oil. Reference: Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Lubricant Viscosities (Fluids Recommendations)", and Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Capacities (Refill)" in this manual.
