Hürlimann H-400

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Hürlimann H-400 uses manual transmission fluid with a capacity range of 9 to 66 liters. Service intervals include checking at 125 hours and changing at 3000 hours. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Hürlimann H-480 manual transmission carries a fluid capacity of 9 liters, a figure consistent with a standalone gearbox unit rather than an integrated drivetrain assembly.
  • The H-490 manual transaxle holds a notably larger 66-liter capacity, reflecting the combined volume demands of a transaxle configuration, which houses both transmission and axle functions within a single housing.
  • Both the H-480 and H-490 configurations share a fluid check interval of every 125 hours of operation under normal use conditions, aligning the two variants to a common inspection schedule despite their differing capacities.
  • The change interval for both configurations is set at 3,000 hours under normal use conditions, a figure typical of heavy-duty agricultural equipment designed for extended service cycles between full fluid replacements.
  • The 9-liter capacity of the H-480 transmission and the 66-liter capacity of the H-490 transaxle represent a sevenfold difference between the two units, underscoring the mechanical distinction between a standalone manual transmission and a full transaxle assembly within the H-400 series.
