Same Aster

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Same Aster differential fluid capacity is 6 liters. Service intervals include checking at 150 hours and changing at 1200 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 Same Aster 60 and Aster 70 share an identical front differential fluid capacity of 6 liters, which represents a service fill volume for routine maintenance rather than a full overhaul quantity.
  • A check interval of 150 hours applies to the front differential on both the Aster 60 and Aster 70 under normal use conditions, meaning the fluid level and condition are inspected at that frequency without necessarily draining or replacing the fluid.
  • The change interval for front differential fluid on both models is set at 1200 hours under normal use conditions, placing a full drain-and-fill service at a point eight times further out than the check interval.
  • The 1200-hour change interval is expressed in operating hours rather than calendar time or distance, which is standard practice for agricultural and construction equipment where engine load and terrain vary significantly between units.
  • Both the Aster 60 and Aster 70 carry the same 6-liter front differential capacity across the full 1989-1996 production span covered by these specifications, indicating no revision to the differential housing volume between the two models or across those years.
