Gearbox Lubrication
The gearbox should be full (18 ounces) 0.54 liters
and not require additional lubricant unless the box
is cracked or a seal is leaking. It is recommended
that the 1/8” oil level plug (Figure MntP-R-0009) be
removed after every 10 hours of operation. If
required, oil should be added until it runs out
hole.Check the oil level after operating long enough
for warmed oil to flow through the Bearings into the
lower Gearbox cavity. Refill to the test plug level.
Check the oil again before operation, after every 40
hours of mowing, and at the beginning and end of
each mowing season.
Recommended lubricant is Multi-Purpose Gear Oil
P/N 00786250. Gearbox capacity is 1 Quart.
NOTE: Make sure mower is level when checking oil in the gearbox.
NOTE: Overfilling of Gearbox will cause pressure to build up and cause Grease Seals to leak.ATTENTION: If
the Gearbox suddenly starts making an unusual noise, stop at once, check for leaks, and refill Gearbox as
required.

of oil.
