350C cluch and final drive fill points and levels

Post by Bud.L » Tue Jan 29, 2008 1:13 am

:?: I just purchased a 350c dozer with a cluch problem. I fixed the cluch but have fluid problem. I have the covers off both the right and left cluch and need to fill them with oil. Every thing I see in the manuals both operators and technical say to drain final drives, cluches and transmission flush and refill. My question is are these all conected and are filled through the dip stick hole and the proper level checked with dip stick or are they all seprate. If they are seprate where do I fill each and how do I check proper level on each (final drive, cluches). HELP! I have much work to do and need to get this thing moving.

On 350C's the Transmission, Steering Clutches Housings, and Final Drives are all filled and checked with the dipstick located on the floor just behind your left heel. The oil level should be between the marks with the threads on the dipstick resting on top of the tube. The oil used is HyGard Transmission and Hydraulic oil (J20A) or equivalent. You'll need a funnel.

Hi
Its all one common reservoir, srs is dead on about how to check it and what oil to use. It will take some time for the level to settle as the oil has to work its way out of the transmission and in to the finals. Once you fill it and run it for a while check it again. If youve had all of the oil out of the final or clutch housings it isnt a bad idea to put a gallon or two into each housing. That way youll have some oil out there to start moving and its alot faster to fill than using the trans.
