Checking and filling transmission oil

Note: It is no longer possible to check the transmission oil level using currently known methods.

Note: The inclination of the power unit has been changed.

Therefore, the lower edge of the filling hole 1 is below the new oil level 2 (pic. 3.55).

The oil level in the gearbox can only be checked when the transmission oil is completely drained and refilled.

Preparation

Remove the air filter housing assembly.

Remove the soundproofing.

Clean out the gearbox.

Attention: The pin for the selector forks in the gearbox must be removed in order to drain the gear oil.

Attention: To ensure that the position of the selector forks does not change, eg due to unintentional pressing of the selector actuator, the selector shaft must be installed.

Locking the shift shaft

Press the shift shaft down (arrow direction 1) (pic. 3.49).

While pressing on the selector shaft, turn corner A in the direction of arrow 2 upwards and at the same time gently press it inward until it snaps into place on the selector shaft.

Gear oil outlet

To collect gear oil, use a clean 3.0 L receptacle with a scale.

The shift shaft must be secured.



Unscrew the screw plug 1, then remove the pin 2 and drain the gear oil (pic. 3.56).

Install pin 2 with a new O-ring.

Screw in screw plug 1 (pic. 3.49).

Then return corner A to its original position (arrow direction), so that the shift shaft has free play again

Transmission oil filling

Add gear oil in a container up to 1.9 liters.




Remove the reverse light switch (pic. 3.57).

Connect the hose (length approx. 600 mm, outer diameter 10 mm) with standard funnel.

Insert the hose into the reversing light switch mounting hole. (2nd mechanic) and top up with gear oil.

Reinstall the reverse light switch.

Check the operation of the gear shift actuator.

Install the air filter housing assembly.

Install soundproofing.
