Transmission
The transmission oil should be even with the line on the Oil Level Gauge
when the motor is NOT running. If the oil falls below this line, DISCONNECT
MAIN ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY and remove the Top Cover, which
is secured by two screws. Remove the Transmission Fill Plug (Fig. 7) and
add a small amount of the recommended transmission oil until it returns
to the proper level. DO NOT overfill the transmission, as leakage may
result. Contact your local Hobart Service Centre for the recommended
transmission oil.
Bowl Lift
The bowl clamp area of the bowl support, the slideways, and lift screw should be
lubricated two or three times per year, depending on use. To reach these areas, loosen
the thumb screws securing the apron and remove the apron. Remove the inner apron
by removing its screws.
Slideway Oilers (Fig. 6) are provided for lubricating the bowl lift slideways — use
Lubriplate FMO-200-AW oil (supplied).
The Lift Screw (Fig. 6) is lubricated with the bowl lift fully lowered by applying a thin
coat of Lubriplate 630AA (supplied).
Replace both aprons.

Bowl Clamps
The height of the bowl clamp is controlled by a spring washer and locknut, which are
located on the bottom of the bowl support. Turning the locknut clockwise will loosen the
clamp, counterclockwise will tighten it. If repeated adjustments are necessary,
additional service is indicated. Contact your local Hobart Service Centre.
