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 exceptional 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 non-metallic friction materials. Their
stable frictional characteristics help 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. This superior shear stability allows Powershift
Transmission Fluids 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.
Superior 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.
