Oil & Fuel gear oil

[ashamangre]

Can somebody inform me about the gear oil I can use for my YM2310 (Axis drive). Has somebody a simple manual of this tractor? I tried to read the japanese letters, but my japanese is not that good.

What are you really asking? I don't know what axis drive is, but if you have a 2wd YM2310 it does not use gear oil, only universal Hy/Tran in the transmission. If you have a 4wd YM2310D, it uses 90wt gear oil in the front axle.

Thank you for your reply. We are not so wellknown with tractors. We have a YM2310 (2wd). We had a leak - I don't know if it's called gearbox, but it's under the seat - we pourred the oil. There is a orange lid with oil written on it. Now we doubt what to apply. Some people say we have to use SAE40 and some 90.

The transmission and hydraulic system share the same oil. I would use a JD303 hy/tran oil or equivalent oil. Hy/tran means hydraulic and transmission oil.

This is your Hydraulic and transmission resivoir. It does not take engine oil, or dextron/mecron transmission fluid. It takes the specific hydraulic/transmission fluid. In your area might come un a bucket that just has the brand name and "JD 303" on it, like generics do around here.

Old tractors did use 40wt or 90wt in the transmissions. Like 8n's or old massys or allises.

You can change the oil in the transmission to Dextron Automatic Transmission Fluid and it will work well in your powershift transmission and hydraulic or use the JD 303 spec hydraulic oil. Do NOT use 40wt or gear oil in the transmission. On your tractor you only have engine oil and transmission--in the engine use a good multi-grade engine oil, in the transmission use JD 303 or Dextron ATF.

I'm not that familiar with a YM2310, but I can't think of anything under the seat that would have "OIL" written on it. All writing should be in Japanese. A picture would help.

My dipstick on my ym2000 has Jap writing and Oil written on it.

Here is a picture of my cap on my transmission/hydraulic resivoir.

Another question is why do the numbers have 1 and 4 in the same place? How can you be in low and hit 1 and 4 in the same place?
