Additional Notes

  • The Bell Equipment T17C (6x6) with ADE 366TI engine carries a transfer box fluid capacity of 4.5 liters, which represents a service fill volume rather than a full overhaul quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, the T17C (6x6) ADE 366TI transfer box fluid is changed at 1000-hour intervals.
  • An initial service interval of 100 hours applies to the T17C (6x6) ADE 366TI transfer box, tied to the same 4.5-liter capacity as the normal service fill. The shortened first interval reflects standard break-in practice for gear oil in mechanical drive components.
  • The T17D (6x6) fitted with the Mercedes-Benz OM906LA (Tier 2) engine shares the 4.5-liter transfer box capacity with the T17C (6x6), indicating a common transfer case unit across both configurations.
  • Under normal use conditions, the T17D (6x6) Mercedes-Benz OM906LA (Tier 2) transfer box fluid change interval is 2000 hours, double the 1000-hour interval specified for the T17C (6x6) ADE 366TI under the same use condition.
