Power Take Off Unit Draining and Filling

POWER TAKE OFF UNIT DRAINING AND FILLING

Caution: New power takeoff (PTO) unit lubricant must be installed any time the power take off (PTO) unit has been submerged in water.

Note: The power take off (PTO) unit is lubricated for life and is not to be checked unless a leak is suspected or a repair is necessary.

1. Remove the drain plug and drain the power take off (PTO) unit.





2. Apply sealant to the drain plug threads and install the plug.

Caution: Power take off (PTO) unit failure can result if the correct fill procedures are not followed.

Note: The fluid level must be even with the bottom of the filler hole with the vehicle on flat, level ground.

3. Remove the fill plug and fill the power take off (PTO) unit with SAE 75W-140 synthetic gear lubricant.





4. Apply sealant to the fill plug and install the plug.
