Terex Articulated dump trucks

Automatic transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Terex articulated dump trucks utilize automatic transmission fluid with a capacity range of 48 to 61 liters. Service intervals include a check at 10 hours and a change at 6000 hours. The data covers 4 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Terex TA350 and TA400 Detroit Diesel variants (A972, A975, A982) share an identical automatic transmission dry fill capacity of 61 liters, indicating a full overhaul or initial build fill rather than a routine service top-up.
  • A dry fill figure represents the total fluid volume required when a transmission is completely empty, such as after a rebuild or replacement, and differs from the smaller quantity needed during a standard fluid change.
  • The TA400 Scania DC13 Tier 4i (A1115) carries a transmission fluid capacity of 48 liters, which is 13 liters less than the 61-liter figure associated with the Detroit Diesel configurations across both the TA350 and TA400 models.
  • The 48-liter capacity on the A1115 is not labeled as a dry fill, distinguishing it from the Detroit Diesel entries where the dry fill designation is explicitly stated.
  • All four configurations share a 10-hour check interval, a frequency consistent with heavy construction equipment operating in demanding duty cycles where fluid condition and level can change rapidly in early service hours.
  • The 6000-hour change interval applies uniformly across all four configurations under normal use conditions, reflecting a long-cycle maintenance schedule typical of large articulated dump trucks designed for continuous site operation.
  • The A1115 configuration introduces the Scania DC13 Tier 4i engine pairing starting from 2011, while the three Detroit Diesel variants (A972, A975, A982) share a common starting year of 2010.
