Be sure to remove it from within the drain hole.
4.
Clean the filter and inspect for damage (cracks
holes, splitting, tears) Replace if damaged.
NOTE :
Use compressed air in small bursts directed to the
inside of the filter so contaminants and particles in
the filter folds are forced out.
5.
Position the filter in the drain hole. Apply anti-
seize thread lubricant to bolt threads. Inspect the
sealing washer and install onto the bolt so the flat
side faces the crankcase. Insert the end filter into
the drain bolt hole and slowly thread the drain
bolt into the crankcase. The other end of the filter
screen should locate in the hole in the transmis-
sion cartridge plate easily. If the drain bolt is diffi-
cult to turn, back it off and turn slowly until the
filter end finally locates.
CAUTION :
The drain bolt should turn easily with your
finger tips until the washer seats against the
crankcase. If forced, damage to the filter can
result .
6.
Tighten the drain bolt to 8.1 N•m (6.0 lbf•ft).
7.
Add the specified transmission oil at the filler cap
until the oil level rises to just below the top of the
inspection window. Pour slowly and allow time
for the oil to flow throughout the case cavity.
8.
Then, run the engine briefly (1-2 minutes) to cir-
culate newly added oil and recheck the level.
Add more if necessary.
