MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS

GENERALS

1. OIL TEST

1) Hydraulic System
If there is a problem in the hydraulic system, perform the following:
- Test transmission oil
- Inspect the manual linkage adjustment
-
Check the engine's idling speed
- Perform the stall test
- Perform the driving test
2) Oil Test
▶ Check the Amount of Oil
This check must be performed when the engine is warm. If there is insufficient oil and the
vehicle moves, shift loss or delay may happen.
First, check the transmission malfunction code. If there is a problem with the shaft speed,
insufficient oil may cause the problem.
When there is an abnormal shift delay or loss of driving power during driving or reversing,
perform the driving test. When the level of oil is low and this vehicle is moving on a corner, there
will be a brief driving power loss.
When both oil temperature and level are low, there will be loss of driving power. Replenish oil if
the engine is completely warmed up and there is no loss of driving power, but there is still a
problem with the vehicle speed.
▶ Oil Check and Replenishment
When replenishing or changing transmission oil, a genuine recommended oil must be used.
If non-approved oil is used, it will have fatal impacts on the transmission's performance and life.
Never use such oil. Wrong oil can damage the transmission.
When the transmission oil is hot, do not remove the filler plug. Wait for 2 hours to cool down the
oil. Then, remove the plug.
1.
When the engine is hot, wait for 2 hours before replenishing transmission oil. Then, the
transmission's temperature also becomes cooled down to a proper range. When the filler
plug is removed while the temperature of oil is hot, oil will flow out and its level in the
transmission will go down.
2. Push the selection lever to the "P" position and shut off the engine.
3. Raise up the vehicle with a proper lift.
4. Clean up the surroundings of the filler plug before removing the plug. After removing the
plug, clean up the plug thoroughly and inspect the O-ring for any damage.
