BX2230 came with Super UDT in front axle, at 50 hours should this be changed to 80-140w gear lube or replaced with Super UDT? Any comments/suggestions?

I don't remember the front axle fluids needing to be changed that soon...... ....

Check the service chart in your manual. I don't believe the front axle lube needs to be changed at 50 hrs. If you do, I would stick with the Super UDT. ....

According to my book on my BX2200 (pretty much the same machine). It says to change the front axle fluid at 300 hours and you can use either super UDT or SAE80 or SAE90. This to me is kind of strange. We all knoiw there is quite a difference in the super udt and gear oil. Can anyone shed some light on this?

My machine is at 282 hours and both front seals are leaking a little. I was going to post soon if anyone has filled the front axle with gear oil. I figured it's a lot thicker and may not leak as much.
