damage to the transmission may occur.

If it becomes necessary to tow (or push) the machine,

tow (or push) at a speed below 3 mph (4.8 kph), and for

a very s hort distance. If machine needs to be moved a

considerable distance, machine should be transported

on a trailer. The transmission is equipped with two c heck

valves that need to be pressed for towing or pushing

Check Hydraulic Fluid

The Groundsmaster 3280--D/3320 hydraulic system is

designed to operate on high quality hydraulic fluid. The

front axle housing acts as the hydraulic system reservoir

and it holds approximately 6 quarts (5.7 liters) of hydrau-

lic fluid. Check level of hydraulic fluid daily. See Trac-

tion Unit Operator’s Manual for fluid level checking

procedure and hydraulic oil recommendations.
