Remove drain plug (1) from the bottom of the transmission. Allow the oil to drain into a suitable container.
After the oil has drained from the transmission case, clean the drain plug before reinstalling the drain plug. Tighten the drain plug to 73.5 3.5 N m (54 2.6 lb ft).
Remove the three bolts for access plate (2).
Remove the magnetic filter and the screen. Note: Additional oil may drain from the oil pan when the cover is removed. Ensure that a suitable container is in place in order to capture any oil that may drain from the oil pan.
Inspect the suction screen and the magnetic filter for large particles of debris. An excessive amount of debris may be an indication of possible failure. Discolored oil or oil with an odor requires a careful analysis of S O S results. If large particles are found, consult your Caterpillar dealer for further analysis and additional guidance.
Do not drop or rap the magnets against any hard objects. The magnets are very brittle. Replace broken magnets or damaged screens.
