Additional recommendations for long-term transmission storage preservation, are now available for transmissions listed above.
Follow the below recommendations for TH48, TH55, and CX48 Transmissions.
- Add
740 mL (25 oz) of VCI oil ( 4C-6792 Oil) to the transmission sump. Refer to Special Instruction , SEHS9031 , "Storage Procedure For Caterpillar Products". Before operating transmission, drain the oil completely and refill the oil by referring to Operation and Maintenance Manual of the transmission. - Apply a film of multipurpose grease (MPGM) or other rust preventative to all exposed surfaces of the transmission output flange.
- Remove shipping cover and apply multipurpose grease (MPGM) or other rust preventative to exposed mounting flange surfaces
- Seal the transmission fill cap/breather with tape or heat shrink to prevent the VCI vapor from escaping during storage.
- Ensure that all electrical connectors that are not installed are sealed with appropriate plugs.
- Inspect the condition of all loose ship components and ensure that the parts are well protected by VCI bags.
For CX31, CX35, CX38, TH31, TH35 Transmissions, follow the below recommendations.
- Add
118 mL (4 oz) of VCI oil ( 4C-6792 Oil) to the transmission sump. Refer to Special Instruction , SEHS9031 , "Storage Procedure For Caterpillar Products". Before operating transmission, drain the oil completely and refill the oil by referring to Operation and Maintenance Manual of the transmission. - Apply a film of multipurpose grease (MPGM) or other rust preventative to all exposed surfaces of the transmission output flange.
- Seal the transmission fill cap/breather with tape or heat shrink to prevent the VCI vapor from escaping during storage. Breather may be removed and plugged if desired.
- Ensure that all electrical connectors that are not installed are sealed with appropriate plugs.
- Spray the torque converter with VCI Oil and cover belt housing with plastic.
Note: Bagging the whole transmission in a VCI bag may be a simple way to achieve a seal.
