trany screen at 200hr maintenance

[Steve_S]

I've changed my tranny fluid three times now (once because I ripped a hole in the filter. and two scheduled maint.) All 3 times my screen has been loaded with metal shavings. Why? Who knows, but it doesn't seem to cause any problems. I've found that blowing it out with an air compressor works as good as anything for cleaning it.

I have over 600 hours on my 2910, and I've cleaned the screen 3 times. All of the metal I've taken out of mine put together, wouldn't cover a third of my little finger nail. It might be time to let your dealer check out what's going on. You may have a problem in the making. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

When I did my 50hr service, I noticed little/no shavings on the screen. I was expecting much more.

Is this the first change or do you change it at 50 hours also? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

At 50 hours, my BX2200 screen had some drill chips on it, but no "filings". I'm not concerned about them at all. This is why they want you to change it at 50 hours, to get the crud out.
