Terex Site Dumper TA9

The level is checked using the dipstick/filler - figure 9.9. Refers

With the oil warm the level should be between MIN and MAX on the dipstick Figure 9.10. refers.

NOTICE: Never overfill the transmission as this will result in oil breakdown due to excessive heat and aeration of the oil caused by the churning action of the oil. Breakdown of the oil will cause heavy sludge deposits that will block oil ports and build up on splines and bearings.

1. Drive the machine for about 1 minute and then stop and park up on flat level ground.

2. Pull out the dipstick and wipe off with a lint free cloth or paper.

3. Replace the dipstick and then remove again.

4. The level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick.

5. If the oil is below the MIN mark top up with the correct grade of oil.

The oil level is checked using the dip stick - Figure 9.? refers. The engine oil level must always be between the MIN and MAX on the dip stick. If the engine is warm switch OFF and leave for 5 Minutes before checking levels.

WARNING: NEVER check the oil level or add oil with the engine running. Be careful of hot lubricating oil. Danger of scalding.

NOTICE: Low lubricating oil level can damage the engine. Over filling with oil can damage the engine.
