Safe operating oil level is when the transmission\transfer case fluid level is halfway between the "HOT ADD" line and "HOT FULL" line on the dipstick. With the engine at idle (500-800 rpm) for one minute and engine coolant temperature at normal operating range (165-180°F (74-82°C)), check transmission/transfer case oil level. If the level is below the "HOT ADD" line, add one (1) quart of oil and check oil level. Repeat this procedure until oil level is halfway between the "HOT ADD" line and "HOT FULL" line. If the level is above the "HOT FULL" line, drain one (1) quart of oil from the transmission and check oil level. Repeat this procedure until oil level is halfway between the "HOT FULL" line and "HOT ADD" line. Use OE/HDO oil specified for the ambient temperature. 3. Check hydraulic reservoir fluid l evel daily. Remove hydraulic fluid reservoir cap to visually inspect hydraulic fluid level. TANK IS CONSIDERED FULL WHEN FLUID LEVEL IN TANK IS VISIBLE AT FILL PORT and fluid level gage reads F (full). Fill hydraulic fluid reservoir with OE/HDO specified for the ambient temperature. 4. Check coolant level daily. Surge tank level is acceptable when coolant is visible in lower sight glass. If coolant is not visible in lower sight glass, fill surge tank until coolant is visible half way in upper sight glass. Fill surge tank with MIL-A-46153 or MIL-A-11755 coolant. 5. Apply a thin coat of GAA to fifth wheel ramps and top plate weekly. Lubricate grease fittings (using a low pressure lubrication gun) every week with GAA. 6. Check hydraulic tank oil level daily. Oil level should be no more than 0.75 in. (1.9 cm) below black line on hydraulic oil view gage. Fill hydraulic oil reservoir with OE/HDO specified for the ambient temperature. 7. Lubricate all oil can points once a month. Lubricate with OE/HDO specified for ambient temperature. The operator/crew is responsible for lubricating the following points. a.
