b . Definition of Locational and
Directional Terms
(1) Locational terms used in de-
scribing the power train, are front, rear,
right and left. The input transfer section
and main transmission section locational
terms do not always correspond to vehicle
locational terms, while those of the output
drive assemblies do correspond. In the
vehicle application for which this manual
is written, the power train is front -
mounted and the locational terms for the
input transfer and main transmission sec-
tions are opposite those for the vehicle
and output drive assemblies (fig. 3).
(2) The front of the transmission
is always the location adjacent to the en-
gine regardless of the manner of mounting
in the vehicle. The rear is the location at
which the brake inspection covers are
mounted. The left is the side to which
the input transfer housing is attached.
The right is the side on which the brake
apply shafts are located (figs. 2 and 3).

TRANSMISSION OIL
Oil may be considered as the lifeblood
of a hydraulic transmission. The use of
proper oil, and attention to keeping the
oil clean, is of paramount importance.
The proper oil level must be maintained in
the transmission to obtain maximum per-
formance. Check the oil level regularly.
Clean the oil screens at specified inter-
vals.
Be very careful that no foreign
matter enters the power train system at
any time. When changing or adding oil,
use only that specified (see “Oil specifi-
cations” Table I, TABULATED DATA ,
par. 7, below).
Refer to the operator
manual for procedures to be followed in
checking the oil level and for changing
the oil.
