Maintenance and Specifications
Eaton UltraShift (if equipped)
The Eaton UltraShift transmission is filled with synthetic fluid from the
factory with no scheduled lube change intervals. This fluid is intended to
last the life of the transmission. However, the system should be checked
regularly to ensure that proper transmission fluid levels remain constant.
Refer to the Eaton Driver Instructions Manual for details.
Manual transmission fluid
Refer to the Scheduled Maintenance Guide chapter for transmission
fluid level checks and fluid change intervals.
Your manual transmission may be filled with an optional synthetic fluid
which allows the use of extended service intervals. A tag on the filler
plug will identify the use of the synthetic fluid.
Use only fluid that meets manufacturer specifications (refer to
Lubricant specifications in this chapter).
Use of a non-approved transmission fluid may cause internal
transmission component damage.
