• To avoid severe burns, DO NOT attempt this
procedure when the engine, cooling, and hy-
draulic systems are hot. Wait until they have
cooled before proceeding.
• Care must be exercised to avoid skin rashes,
fire hazards and inhalation of vapors when
using solvent and alkali cleaners.
• Be careful when using steam cleaner to
avoid burns.
IMPORTANT: These instructions cover only the
routine maintenance of the transmission. Refer to
your 18000 Powershift Transmission Maintenance
