gear. When inspection through the filler plug hole
(Fig. 48) indicates replenishment is necessary,
fill
the
housing to the proper lever using Multi-Purpose Gear
Oil SAE 90, as defined by MILG2105B. This lubricant
is suitable for all temperature ranges. It is not neces-
sary to replace the lubricant.
CAUTION: When filling, do not use a pressure gun
as high pressure may damage the seals.

BRAKES
The brakes on all models, except for some police
cars and high-performance models, are equipped with
self-adjusting features which make
it unnecessary to
perform major brake adjustments.
When brake linings are inspected for wear, the

sup-
ports should be lubricated with a very thin film of
Sylglyde, Part Number 1881923.
To perform this service, remove the brake shoes,
clean the contact areas and smooth down with sand-
paper before applying the Sylglyde.
