Gearbox Lubrication

The gearbox should be full (18 ounces).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 NLGI 000 Grease, Alamo Group P/N 00765444 with a capacity of one 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.
