The chart below illustrates the safe percent of upgrade on which the transmission can be used with various chassis mounting angles.įor example: if you have a 4 degree transmission mounting angle, then 8 degrees (or 14 percent of grade) is equal to the limit of 12 degrees. The operating angle is the transmission mounting angle in the chassis plus the percent of upgrade (expressed in degrees). If the transmission operating angle is more than 12 degrees, improper lubrication can occur. Proper Lubrication Levels as Related to Transmission Installation Angles The lower temperature limit and oil cooler restriction with these gear oils generally limit their success to milder applications. In addition, transmission oil coolers are not recommended with these gear oils since the oil cooler materials may be attacked by these gear oils. Mild EP gear oil and multipurpose gear oil are not recommended when lubricant operating temperatures are above 230☏ (110). and above with overdrive transmissions and GCW’S over 90,000 lbs. The following conditions in any combination can cause operating temperatures of over 250 oF: (1) operating consistently at slow speeds, (2) high ambient temperatures, (3) restricted air flow around transmission, (4) exhaust system too close to transmission, (5) high horsepower, overdrive operation.Įxternal oil coolers are available to reduce operating temperatures when the above conditions are encountered. When the average operating temperature is above 250 oF, the transmission may require more frequent oil changes or external cooling. Operating temperatures above 250 oF increase the lubricant’s rate of oxidation and shorten its effective life. However, intermittent operating temperatures to 300 oF (149 oC) will not harm the transmission. The transmission should not be operated consistently at temperatures above 250 oF (120 oC).
