DRAINING
1. Start engine and let it run to warm up transmission.
2. Stop engine. Remove drain plug and gasket and then drain oil.
3. Set a gasket on drain plug and install it to transmission case. Tighten drain plug to the specified torque.
Refer toMT-19, "
Case Components".
CAUTION:
Do no reuse gasket.
FILLING
1. Remove filler plug and gasket. Fill with new oil until oil level reaches the specified limit near filler plug
mounting hole.
2. After refilling oil, check oil level. Set a gasket to filler plug, then install it to transmission case. Tighten filler
plug to the specified torque. Refer toMT-19, "
Case Components".
CAUTION:
Do no reuse gasket.
Checking M/T OilECS00ID4
OIL LEAKAGE AND OIL LEVEL
lMake sure that oil is not leaking from transmission or around it.
lCheck oil level from filler plug mounting hole as shown in the fig-
ure.
CAUTION:
Do not start engine while checking oil level.
lSet a gasket on filler plug and install it to transmission case.
Tighten filler plug to the specified torque. Refer toMT-19, "
Case
Components".
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.Oil grade and viscosity: Refer toMA-14, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
