TM 9-2320-365-10F-9. LUBRICATION NOTESWARNINGEngine dipstick is located close to starter solenoid connectorswhich contain 24 vdc and high amperage. Use cautionremoving/installing engine dipstick to prevent shorting acrossstarter solenoids when checking engine oil level. Failure tocomply may result in serious injury or death to personnel ordamage to equipment.1. Check engine oil level daily. Oil is full when level is within crosshatch marks ondipstick. Do not overfill. Fill crankcase with OE/HDO specified for the ambienttemperature.2. Check transmission/transfer case oil level daily with vehicle parked on levelsurface and transmission range selector in Neutral (N). Safe operating oil level iswhen transmission/transfer case fluid level is halfway between "HOT ADD" line and"HOT FULL" line on dipstick. With engine at idle (500-800 rpm) for one minuteand engine coolant temperature at normal operating range (165-180 F (74-82 C)),check transmission/transfer case oil level. If level is below "HOT ADD" line, addone (1) quart of oil and check oil level. Repeat this procedure until oil level ishalfway between "HOT ADD" line and "HOT FULL" line. If level is above "HOTFULL" line, drain one (1) quart of oil from transmission and check oil level. Repeatthis procedure until oil level is halfway between "HOT FULL" line and "HOT ADD"line. Use OE/HDO oil specified for the ambient temperature.Change 1 F-8.1/(F-8.2 Blank)
