PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids are specifically
designed for high-torque heavy-duty powershift
transmissions. Formulated for extended drain
intervals, Powershift Transmission Fluids
contain top-quality synthetic base stocks and a
high level of top-quality additives selected
specifically for powershift transmissions. They
offer unmatched transmission friction
performance, smooth brake operation, reduced
gear and bearing wear and increased equipment
life.
Friction
Characteristics
AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids are compatible
with common metallic and nonmetallic friction
materials. Their stable frictional
characteristics eliminate excessive brake noise
and vibration. Their nonslip friction
durability virtually eliminates clutch
slippage, which can cause glazing or friction
surface deposits and material degradation.
Powershift Transmission Fluids are formulated
to deliver responsive yet smooth clutch
engagements, excellent power transmission
through clutches and synchronizers and superior
hydraulic fluid performance for servo-equipped
units.
Wear
Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids exceed the wear
requirements of the Caterpillar TO-4
specification and are formulated without
viscosity index improvers for superior shear
stability. The superior shear stability of
Powershift Transmission Fluids allows them to
maintain grade throughout service life,
providing long-term protection against
equipment wear, even when equipment is
frequently subjected to sustained periods of
applied pressure or high horsepower and high
torque.
High and Low Temperature
Performance
In high
temperatures, AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids effectively protect
components from wear. Their superior oxidative
and thermal stability inhibits the formation of
varnish, deposits and sludge so equipment runs
clean. Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are excellent heat transfer fluids and may help
hot-running equipment operate cooler and run in
its optimal temperature range. In low
temperatures, Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids flow readily for dependable startup and
post-startup protection.
Copper Corrosion, Rust and
Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids protect
equipment from copper corrosion and rust, even
during equipment storage. Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids do not foam in service,
protecting equipment from the metal-to-metal
contact and wear that occurs with use of
foam-filled fluids.

Installation
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
are fully compatible with other TO-4 fluids
used in powershift applications. To install
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission
Fluids, drain the fluid in the system, replace
the filter (if so equipped) and install the
appropriate Powershift Transmission
Fluid.
Service Life
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift Transmission Fluids
provide extended service life beyond
conventional petroleum fluids if Synthetic
Powershift Transmission Fluids are kept free of
dirt and moisture. Oil analysis is recommended
if extending service intervals beyond equipment
manufacturer recommendations.
AMSOIL Synthetic Powershift
Transmission Fluids may be used for 250,000
miles or two years (whichever comes first) in
CD-50 manual transmission
applications.
