It is important to check the oil level correctly. The oil is a lubricant which also acts as
a cooling medium and operates the clutches. Low oil level results in loss of
transmission and loss of pressure. It also causes overheating and consequent
transmission failure.
Checking the transmission oil level
A
For topping up or filling the transmission, use only clean, fresh oil, handled in clean
containers. If dirt or water is allowed to enter the transmission damage may ensue.
A
The upper marks on the transmission dipstick indicate the oil level when engine is static
and are only a guide for initial filling. The lower marks indicate the correct operating
oil level with the engine running and transmission hot.
S Clean the area and remove the filler
plug (92). Pour in a sufficient quantity
of clean, fresh oil, through the filler
orifice, to bring the level to between
the upper 'min' and 'max' marks on
the dipstick (93); ensure no dust or
other matter enters the transmission.
S Refit filler plug (92) and dipstick (93)
then start engine and, with parking
brake applied, pass the gear selector
through all positions and allow
transmission to reach operating
temperature.
S With engine idling and neutral
selected, remove dipstick (93), wipe
with lint free cloth and check dipstick
reading. Add oil, as required, through
the filler orifice until the required oil
level is indicated at the lower 'max'
mark on the dipstick.
