9. Reassemble all components and fill the transmission
with clean, fresh Universal Tractor Fluid through the
dipstick tube opening (1). Remove the dipstick and
fill with approximately 3 gallons (11,4 liters) of
Universal Tractor Fluid. Check the level by taking
intermittent dipstick readings as outlined in the
appropriate owners/operators manual. DO NOT
overfill. Reinstall the dipstick when finished.
10. Run the engine for two minutes at idle to help prime the
torque converter and the transmission oil lines.
11. Recheck the level of the fluid in the transmission with
the engine running at idle.
12. Add Universal Tractor Fluid as necessary to bring
the fluid level up until it reaches the FULL mark on
the dipstick. Recheck the oil level when it reaches
operating temperature (180-200° F or 83-94° C).
13. Recheck all drain plugs, lines, connections, etc., for
leaks, and tighten where necessary.
6.8 TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
Towing a disabled vehicle should only be attempted as a
last resort, after exhausting all other options. Make every
effort to repair the vehicle, and move it under its own
power, before using the emergency towing procedures
outlined in the appropriate owners/operators manual.
IMPORTANT: After the vehicle has been towed to a
secure location, reactivate the parking brake. Carefully
follow the procedures from start to finish. Consult your
local Sky Trak distributor or the JLG Service
Department at 1-877-554-5438 or 1-717-485-6657, if
you are unsure about any part of the procedure, or for
specific instructions concerning your particular situation.
