To check the level of grease in the gear case, remove the vent plug. On Model 1028 only, you may, if necessary, add grease using a grease gun and the grease fitting on the side of the gear case.

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill the gear case, since damage to the seals could result. Be sure the vent plug is free of grease in order to relieve pressure.
