Chapter 7 LUBRICATION GENERAL INFORMATION
Hydraulic System Reservoir Use Mobil DTE 15M, or an equivalent that contains anti-rust, anti-foam and anti-oxidation additives and conforms to ISO VG46. Refer to “Severe Operating Conditions” on this page for additional hydraulic oil specifications. Capacity: 18 gallons (68 L)
WARNING NEVER lubricate or service this unit when any part of the machine is in motion. ALWAYS exercise the Mandatory Safety Shutdown Procedure (p. 8 Safety chapter) before lubricating or servicing this equipment.
All Grease Fittings Use No. 2 Lithium-based Grease Engine Crankcase Oil
NOTE: The Maintenance chapter in this manual has provisions for recording the dates and hourmeter readings after lubrication or other service has been performed; use those spaces to keep a log for maintaining a current service interval record. Proper routine lubrication is an important factor in preventing excessive part wear and early failure.

The chart on this page lists the locations, temperature ranges and recommended types of lubricants to be used when servicing this machine. Also refer to the separate engine manual for additional information regarding recommended engine lubricants, quantities required and grades.
SAE 20W-50
*API Service Classification: CD, CF, CF-4, CI-4
Change volume w/ filter: 11.1 quarts (10.5 L)
Diesel Fuel
SEVERE OPERATING CONDITIONS
IMPORTANT: Use diesel fuel with a sulfur content of 500 PPM or less. Fuel specified to EN590:96 or ASTM D975-94 is strongly recommended. Fuel additives are not recommended. Refer to the engine manual for additional information.
If the machine is to be operated uninterrupted at full travel speed over distances greater than five miles at ambient temperatures exceeding 90°F (32°C), then the recommended hydraulic oil shown in the chart to the right should be replaced with oil that has an ISO Viscosity Grade (VG) of 68, SAE 20, or equivalent.
Axle Gear Oil MobilFluid® 424 (recommended) API GL5 85W-90 with Wet Brake Additive (Wet Brake Additive part number L71456) Front Differential Capacity: 4.0 quarts (3.8 L) Rear Differential Capacity: 4.0 quarts (3.8 L) Transfer Case Capacity: Front axle: 8 oz. (0.23 L) Front Planetary Capacity: 27 oz. (0.8 L) Rear Planetary Capacity: 30 oz. (0.9 L)
In these severe operating conditions, the drive motor generates more heat and this hydraulic oil will provide the hydrostatic drive components the lubrication needed for proper operation. NOTE: Refer to “Operator Services” in the Service and Storage chapter of this manual for detailed information regarding periodic checking and replenishing of lubricants.
Brake System Use Sunco Multi-ATF or equivalent
