Swing Gears, change oil:
1. Use adequate working platform for draining the oil. Place
receptacles of sufficient capacity (approx. 100 liter) below
drain couplings (10). Attach drain hose (part of tool set) to
drain coupling (10). Remove parts (1, 2 and 3) to speed up
draining. On swing gears with evacuation nozzle (10), use the
Wiggins system for changing the oil.
2. Clean breather filter (3) with compressed air from inside to
outside and re-install.
3. After the oil is completely drained, flush the gear with the reg-
ular gear oil.
4. Remove drain hose from coupling (10) and attach the protec-
tion cap onto the drain coupling.
5. Fill gear housing through filler opening (2) up to the "MAX"
mark on level gauge (1) with fresh oil and re-install plug (2).
