HYDROSTATIC OIL
FOX MINI
The
tractor uses a hydrostatic transmission for movement. The machine is delivered with the
transmission already filled with the proper amount of oil. It is advisable to inspect the zones under the
machine to check for possible leaks. Unlike other models, there is no external tank.
The hydrostatic transmission is equipped from the factory with engine oil 20W-50.
No periodic maintenance of the hydrostatic transmission is necessary if there are no suspicious drops in
performance, leaks or noise. Otherwise, contact a specialised service centre.
