Changing Oil In The Front Axle - Zetor UTILIX HT 45 Operator's Manual

Changing oil in the front axle

1. Drain the oil from the center diff plug and the drain plug in each drive.
2. Replace and tighten all drain plugs.
3. Remove the top plug (Vent plug) from each final drive to vent air from final drives.
4. Remove the dip stick from the filter hole and fill with 2.64 US gal (10 liters) and allow time for the oil to
drain into the final drives.
5. Check the oil level with the dipstick and replace the vent plugs on both final drives and tighten.
1 - Upper Level
2 - Lower Level
1 - Level gauge & Oil Filler
2 - Front axle Oil Drain Plug
Important: Some operators have found that when they fill with the correct amount of oil and dip
it, the oil level on the dipstick is too high due to the fact that it takes a while for the oil to run into the
final drives. Opening the Vent plugs helps to speed this up.
