 ƈ Consult Dodge for proper oil level for reducers equipped with backstops and which are mounted in either the C position or D position.
 Ŷ  Notes:
 1.  Assumes auxiliary cooling where recommended in the catalog.
 2.  Pour point of lubricant selected should be at least 10°F lower than expected minimum ambient starting temperature.
 3.  Extreme pressure (EP) lubricants are not necessary for average operating conditions. TORQUE-ARM internal backstops are
    not suitable for use with EP lubricants.
 4. Special lubricants may be required for food and drug industry applications where contact with the product being manufactured may occur. Consult a lubrication
   manufacturer’s representative for his recommendations.
 5. For reducers operating in ambient temperatures between -22°F (-30°C) and 20°F (–6.6°C) use a synthetic hydrocarbon lubricant, 100 ISO grade or AGMA 3 grade
   (for example, Mobil SHC627). Above 125°F (51°C), consult DODGE Gear Application Engineering (864) 288-9050 for lubrication recommendation.
 6. Mobil SHC630 Series oil is recommended for high ambient temperatures.
