24.2.6 CHECK AXLE OIL LEVEL, ADD OIL
WARNING
‡ When checking the oil level, apply the parking brake, and lock
the front and rear frames with the safety bar and pin.
‡ The oil is at high temperature after the machine has been
operated. Always wait for the temperature to go down before
starting this operation.
Carry out this procedure if there is any sign of oil on the axle
case.
Carry out the inspection with the machine on a horizontal road
surface.
(If the road surface is at an angle, the oil level cannot be checked
correctly.)
1. Stop the engine and remove oil level plug 1.
2. Wipe off any oil adhering to the oil level gauge G attached to
plug 1 with waste cloth.
3. Set the oil level gauge G as shown in the right diagram.
4. The oil level is correct when it is between the two lines provided
on the oil level gauge. If the oil level does not reach the lower
line, add axle oil through filler port F.
For details of the oil to use, see “20. USE OF FUEL, COOLANT
AND LUBRICANTS ACCORDING TO AMBIENT TEMPERATURE.”
5. If the oil level is above the upper line, drain off the excess oil
through drain plug P and check the oil level again.
6. If the oil level is correct, install plug 1.
