HURTH V-DRIVE TRANSMSSION
SERVICE MANUAL NUMBER 23
Checking Transmission Fluid Level
IMPORTANT: Use only specified transmission fluid (see “Lubricants/Sealants”).
IMPORTANT: The dipstick to check fluid level is located on the port side of transmis-
sion. DO NOT remove T-handle on starboard side of transmission.
Check transmission fluid before starting engine each day, as follows:
1.
Remove dipstick. Check fluid level as indicated on dipstick. Fluid level may be some-
what over full mark, as some of the fluid from transmission fluid cooler and hoses may
have drained back into transmission. If low, add transmission fluid to bring level up to
full mark on dipstick.
