OC4 - Any lubrication problems working on a hill.

[mmoscari]

Are there any known oil related problems associated with working on a hill.  Im filling in a gully between two hills and will eventually be grading when its done.  I'll be able to walk and drive a vehicle down when i'm done, but it will be rather steep.  With my 1956 OC4 do I need to worry about the oil pump loosing suction when I'm on the hill.

I believe they were designed to work up to a 45 degree angle.

Thanks, Walter.  My hill may be 25 to 30 degrees when it done.  If I found myself on a 45 degree grade I would not be worrying about oil pressure.
