SECTION 28 – TRANSAXLE (TYPE G): ELECTRIC VEHICLES
DANGER
• See General Warning on page 1-1.
WARNING
• See General Warning on page 1-1.

LUBRICATION

See General Warning on page 1-1.
There are two plugs located on the lower half of the transaxle housing. The upper plug (21) (as viewed when the
vehicle is on a level surface) is used as a lubricant level indicator (Figure 28-5, Page 28-3). When the vehicle
is parked on a level surface, the lubricant level should be even with the bottom of the hole. The lower plug (22) is
for draining the lubricant. When draining the lubricant, the upper plug should be removed so the lubricant will drain
faster. Be sure the drain plug is installed before filling. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Recycle or dispose of used oil or lubricant in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
