PRACTICE Photos: REFORM

PRACTICE Photos: REFORM The REFORM MULI T10 X is the showpiece of the current MULI series. MOTOREX impressed the Austrian manufacturer with its PRISMA ZX SAE 75W/80 synthetic performance oil for manual transmissions and transaxles, supplying the Wels production plant as OEM. ➊ TRANSMISSION FLUID HAT TRICK AT REFORM When it comes to lubrication challenges, many manufacturers turn first to MOTOREX. When REFORM needed a single lubricant for the entire drive train of its MULI S/X series, MOTOREX had the perfect solution in synthetic PRISMA ZX SAE 75W/80. REFORM has made a name for itself as an agricultural and municipal equipment supplier. The 400-employee company has been making vehicles, machines and farm equipment for these markets since 1910. Its best-known product is the REFORM MULI, a transporter and equipment carrier in service in extreme terrain worldwide. Continual improvements and practical, robust engineering have secured the MULI a long life and excellent reputation among specialists. Many thousands of units in a wide range of configurations are in service every day. PERFECTLY DISTRIBUTED The all-wheel-drive design of the REFORM MULI series is based on gantry axles and a standard fully synchronized reversing gearbox with eight forward gears. A splitter box increases this to 16 half-gears at the touch of a button. Various creep speed gears (24/8, or up to 32 speeds in the MULI T10 X) and a side auxiliary drive are available as options on request. Without a doubt, these gear and drive configurations are ideal for even the most difficult applications. 22

Ever more stringent tolerances place additional demands on lubricant properties. Setting the bevel gear position on the rear power take-off gear. Factory-filling with PRISMA ZX simplifies logistics and ensures that REFORM MULIs have ample performance reserves in any situation. ➋ ➌ THREE ASSEMBLIES, ONE OIL The challenge of supplying the main, auxiliary and reduction gear (assembly ➊), the interaxle differential (assembly ➋) and the rear axle transmission (assembly ➌) was encapsulated in a comprehensive set of specifications. Moreover, the new series’ more powerful engine means mastering even higher torques. MOTOREX met the challenge with GEAR OIL PRISMA ZX SAE 75W/80, which has earned the API GL 4 and API GL 5 specifications, allowing it to be used in both synchronized transmissions and in axles with a built-in differential. The product also boasts further benefits that make it perfect for REFORM, including: • extreme shear stability • perfect stability under high pressure • heavy-duty lubricant film • ideal protection against wear • usable over a very wide temperature range • compatibility with synchronizations • excellent cold shift behavior (ideal during winter) • very good damping of operating noise MOTOREX STRAIGHT FROM THE FACTORY As an independent lubricant technology specialist, MOTOREX offers the perfect solution for every lubrication need. And our consulting and lab services are an integral part of each of our products. With our systematic procedure for evaluating the best-suited lubricant on behalf of the vehicle manufacturer, MOTOREX relieves customers of a significant burden and creates opportunities for long-term partnerships. One more reason for REFORM to fill these assemblies with MOTOREX PRISMA ZX at its factory in Wels. Using a single transmission fluid for all three assemblies also reduces the chance of mix-ups and simplifies logistics. Some 70% of REFORM’s output is exported, and a practical and efficient approach to maintenance is part of REFORM’s best-selling model, the MULI.
