■ Checking the Front Axle Oil Level
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage.
●Before checking the oil level, allow the oil to settle
for 1 hour so that the current oil level can be
accurately read on the dipstick. Recheck the oil
level after operating the tractor for several hours.
1. Park the tractor safely and securely.
2. Allow the tractor to cool off for at least 1 hour and
the oil to settle.
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage.
●Dirt and debris in the oil may damage the front
axle. Clean the area around the dipstick before
removing it.
3. Loosen and remove the dipstick situated on the
right side of the front axle.
4. Wipe the dipstick clean with a rag. Only insert the
dipstick into the hole on axle. At this point, do not
fasten the dipstick into the axle case.
5. Remove the dipstick again. Read the oil level on
the dipstick. The oil level should be between the
high and low level marks on the dipstick.
When the oil level is low:
• Add Cub Cadet GEAR LUBE or SAE 80W-90
gear oil through the fill opening until the oil level
is appropriate.
• Reinstall and tighten the dipstick.
6. Operate the tractor for several hours, and then
check the front axle oil level again.
