Illustrations in this manual may show protective shielding open or removed to better illustrate a par-

Replace all shields before operating the machine.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
Adequate lubrication and maintenance on a regular schedule is vital to maintaining your equipment. To ensure long
service and efficient operation, follow the lubrication and maintenance schedules outlined in this manual. The use of
proper fuels, oils, grease and filters, as well as keeping the systems clean, will also extend machine and component
life.
NOTICE: NOTICE: While any company can perform the necessary maintenance or repairs on your equipment, NEW
HOLLAND strongly recommends that you use only NEW HOLLAND dealers and products that meet given specifi-
cations. Improperly or incorrectly performed maintenance and repair voids the equipment warranty and may affect
service intervals.
NOTICE: Always use genuine NEW HOLLAND replacement parts, oils and filters to ensure proper operation, filtration
of engine and hydraulic systems. See your NEW HOLLAND dealer for additional oil quantities.
Regular lubrication is the best insurance against delays and repairs. Proper lubrication will extend machine life. Refer
to the following charts for lubricants and service intervals see 7-8.
NOTICE: Failure to complete the required maintenance at the recommended intervals can cause unnecessary down-
time.
The intervals listed in the maintenance chart are guidelines to be used when operating in normal conditions. Adjust
the intervals for operating in adverse environmental and working conditions. The intervals should be shortened for
sandy, dusty and extremely hot operating conditions.
Always clean the area around dipsticks, fill caps, and check plugs when checking fluid levels. Failure to clean these
areas may allow contamination to enter the system. Drain, flush and refill the system any time you suspect it is
contaminated.
Grease fittings
NOTE: There are not any grease zerk locations on the tractor.
