Checking the Lubricant Level
Clean the area around the check/fill plug and remove plug. The correct lubricant level is just below the
bottom of the threaded hole. If lubricant is low, add lubricant as required. Add lubricant slowly until lubricant
starts to seep from the hole. Install the check/fill plug. In the event that the lubricant is to be replaced, the
vehicle must be elevated and the oil pan removed or the oil siphoned through the check/fill hole.

LUBRICATION

CAUTION
Do not use more than 1/2 ~ 3/4 of grease in any grease fitting at any one time. Excess
grease may cause grease seals to fail or grease migration into areas that could damage components.
Putting more than three pumps of grease in a grease fitting could damage grease seals and cause premature
bearing failure (Ref Fig.13 & Fig. 14)
