An oil expansion tank can be used depending on the power, drive speed, mounting position

and transmission ratio. The oil expansion unit is used to equalize changes in the oil volume

caused by temperature fluctuations in operation.

Before commissioning the gearbox, replace the screw plug with the oil expansion unit.
