LUBRICANTS
ENGINE OIL
1. Remove the engine oil dipstick from its holder.
2. Determine if the engine oil is low, add correct amount of
engine oil to bring oil level to a normal safe level.
CLUTCH OIL
1. Check the oil level in the clutch compartment, fill with 30
SAE engine oil if needed.
REDUCTION GEAR OIL
1. Check the oil level in the reduction gear compartment, fill
with 90 SAE transmission oil if needed.
ZERK GREASE FITTINGS
1. Check the zerk grease fittings at each end of the mixing
drum. These grease fittings lubricate the dumping

fuel is low. If fuel is low, remove the fuel filler cap and fill
with
unleaded
gasoline.

Handle fuel safely. Motor fuels are highly
flammable
and can be dangerous if
mishandled. DO NOT smoke while refueling.
Do not attempt to refuel mixer if the engine is
hot or running. Always allow engine to
cool
before refueling.
