Hydrostatic Transmission (Self-Propelled models only) -
An EATON® Model 7 hydrostatic transmission (Figure 8)
provides the power for the saw's propulsion system. The
transmission drives a sprocket that directly connects the spline
drive to the rear wheels. The no load forward/reverse speeds
are approximately 24.4 m/min. (80 ft/min.).
Figure 8. Hydrostatic Transmission
The transmission is factory filled with approved hydraulic fluid
that has a viscosity equivalent to SAE 20W-20. Should additional
servicing be required, the following hydraulic fluids are
recommended:
z
General Motors Dextron B
z
Ford MM2C-33F
z
Ford M2C-41A

International harvester Hy-Tran Fluids
Figure 9. Transmission Reservoir
DO NOT over fill the fluid reservoir (Figure 9). Note the level
marks on the reservoir.
It is essential to reference the
existing oil conditions (A) cold or (B)
hot prior to
operating the saw.
Overfilling the transmission with
hydraulic fluid may cause the seals to
rupture
causing
mechanical damage.
