Gearbox

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill! Level cutter and wait for gearbox oil to cool before checking. An unlevel cutter or a gearbox with hot oil will not show correct oil level on the dipstick.

Unscrew top vent plug in gearbox to remove dipstick. Wipe oil from dipstick and screw it back in without tightening. Unscrew dipstick and check oil level mark. If low, fill through top plug hole in gearbox with EP 80-90W oil until oil reaches full mark on the dipstick. Reinstall vent plug with dipstick and tighten.

Take your gearbox to a Land Pride dealer if it requires service.
