Gearbox Oil Changing Procedures
Change the oil annually and before storing
the mower for the season.
Before beginning, make sure the
tractor is off and the PTO is
disengaged. Disconnect the
driveline from the tractor before
doing any work.
Securely block-up the mower
before any work is done under the
mower when lifted up. This is to
prevent the mower from dropping
due to inadvertent operation of
controls, hydraulic leaking or
failure of any components.
