MAINTENANCE
GEARBOX
The Gearbox has been filled with lubricant to the Test Plug Level prior to shipment. However, you should
check the oil level at Test Plug before operating, and frequently thereafter.
The gearbox should not require additional lubricant unless the box is cracked or a seal is leaking. It is
recommended that the oil be checked daily, and level plug be removed after every 8 to 10 hours of operation
and oil added until it runs out Test Plug hole. The Test Plug is located on the rear of the Gearbox. Filler Plug is
located on top of Gearbox. Figure Mnt-R-0009.
Recommended lubricant is NLGI-000, Sun 740-A EP, Mobil EP023, Gulf EP023 Grease, or equal.
NOTE: Overfilling the Gearbox will cause pressure to build up and cause Oil Seals to leak.
ATTENTION: If the Gearbox suddenly starts making an unusual noise, stop at once, check for leaks, and refill
Gearbox as required.
TAIL WHEEL ASSEMBLY
Tail Wheel Bearings are packed at the factory with heavy-duty bearing grease. Grease Fittings are provided in
