7.5.4 After Transmission Service or

Replacement

Refer to the Clark-Hurth T 12000 Powershift Transmis-
sion 3, 4, & 6 Speed Intermediate Drop Maintenance and
Service Manual
, part number SM T12-3,4,6 ID for infor-
mation on servicing the transmission after overhaul or
repair. In general:

1. Check transmission oil level and add oil as required.

2. Install a new transmission filter.

3. Check the torque on the drive shaft yoke retaining

bolts. Tighten these M12 bolts to 156 lb/ft (212 Nm).

4. Wear suitable eye protection. When an overhauled or

repaired transmission is installed, thoroughly clean
the oil cooler lines to and from the transmission.

5. Drain and flush the entire system.

6. Disconnect and clean all transmission lines

(Fig. 7–3). When possible, remove transmission lines
from the vehicle for cleaning.

7. Thoroughly clean transmission filter screens and

cases, and replace transmission filter elements.

8. Back flush the transmission oil cooler portion of the

radiator with oil and compressed air until all foreign
material is removed. Flushing in the direction of
normal oil flow does not adequately clean the cooler.
If needed, remove the radiator from the vehicle.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use flushing compounds for
cleaning purposes.

9. Reassemble all components and fill the transmission

with clean, fresh 10W motor oil through the filler
opening until oil comes up to the FULL port on the
transmission housing.

10. Remove the UPPER check plug. Fill the transmission

with oil until oil runs from the UPPER oil hole.
Replace the filler and the level plug.

11. Run the engine for two minutes at idle (1,000 - 1,100

rpm) rpm to help prime the torque converter and the
transmission oil lines.

12. Recheck the level of the fluid in the transmission with

the engine running at idle (1,000 - 1,100 rpm).

13. Add 10W motor oil as necessary to bring the fluid

level up until it begins to run freely from the UPPER
oil level check plug hole. Install the oil level plug.
Recheck the oil level when it reaches operating
temperature (180-200°F, or 83-94°C).

14. Recheck all drain plugs, lines, connections, etc., for

leaks and tighten where necessary.
