- Remove the transmission drain plug. Allow the transmission oil to drain into a suitable container. Clean the transmission drain plug and install the transmission drain plug.
- Change the transmission oil filter element. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Transmission Oil Filter - Replace".
- Clean the transmission magnetic screen. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Transmission Magnetic Screen - Clean".
- Fill the transmission with transmission oil through the transmission filler tube. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Lubricant Viscosities" and Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Refill Capacities".

- Start the engine and run the engine at low idle. Apply the service brake. Slowly operate the transmission controls in order to circulate the oil.
- Move the transmission control lever to NEUTRAL and engage the parking brake. Inspect the transmission for leaks.
- Maintain the transmission oil level between the "LOW" mark and the "HIGH" mark in the sight gauge when the transmission is warm and the engine is running. Maintain the transmission oil level to the top of the sight gauge when the transmission is cool and the engine is not running. Add transmission oil through the transmission filler tube, if necessary.
Note: Check the transmission oil level by using the dipstick if the sight gauge is blocked. You may need to take more than one reading in order to achieve a consistent reading on the dipstick. The oil level needs to be maintained in the crosshatched area of the dipstick. The dipstick is attached to the oil fill cap.
