Inspection requires checking for visible signs of oil leakage, draining, replacing and adding 
oil to ensure appropriate oil level requirements. Excessively dirty oil will require fresh 
replacement. If oil leakage is found to be excessive, refer to appropriate troubleshooting
information and perform applicable corrective action. Periodic inspection procedures can be 
less frequent after first or second scheduled inspections. 
Initial oil change requirements include flushing gear boxes with a standard cleaning agent.
