FLUIDS
Fluids used in Cub Cadet 3000 Series tractors have
been carefully selected. Only use Cub Cadet oil part
no. 737-3055A for quarts or 737-3054A for gallons.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Certain procedures may require the vehicle to be
disabled (wheels raised off the ground, engine
disconnected, etc.) in order to prevent possible injury
to the technician and bystanders.
Some cleaning solvents are flammable. To avoid
possible fire, do not use cleaning solvents in an area
where a source of ignition may be present.
The loss of hydrostatic driveline power may result in
the loss of hydrostatic braking capacity. Proper brake
maintenance becomes very important should this
condition develop.
MAINTENANCE
Check the transmission cooling fan for broken or
distorted blades, and check to see that the fan is
securely fastened. Replace the fan if damaged.
Keep the transmission clean. Grass clippings and dirt
will influence the cooling efficiency of the fins on the
transmission housings. Avoid high pressure fluid
washes, compressed air is the preferred method of
removing loose debris. Avoid the immediate area of
the lip seals or damage may occur.
Inspect the transmission for leaks at the lip seals,
damage to fittings, hoses, the filter, or to the
housings. Check the oil level and add oil as
necessary to bring it up to the proper level. Refer to
vehicle owners manual.
