2. Remove the dip stick and wipe it clean.
3. Reinsert the dip stick without threading it in. Remove

SERVICE NOTES: The axle oil does not require chang-
ing unless it has been contaminated. To change the oil,
drain the main axle cavity and the two lower spindle cavi-
ties by removing the drain plugs. When filling the axle
after a complete draining it is necessary to fill the lower
spindle cavities through their fill holes as well as the
main cavity. After the initial filling the oil level of all three
cavities can be checked at the dip stick (A) as oil will
seep from the main cavity to the lower ones.
