450C transmission fluid and filter change.

Post by Tye Reay » Fri Apr 09, 2021 7:45 pm

Dozer is 450CC, 252285T. I want to drain, change oil and filter(s). It has the H-L-R transmission. Is there just one screen on the right side of the transmission and one filter element in front of the radiator. Is the steering clutch housings and the transmission a common sump, but need drained separately.

Hello,

Yes, you are correct about the screen, filter and common sump. Clutch housings each have their own drain plugs and filler like the transmission (your operators manual provides details). You'll need a new gasket for the screen. Use good oil ( not "303") and some Seafoam if you are worried about moisture.
