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 level plug be removed after every 8 to 10 hours of operation and oil added until it
runs out of the Test Plug hole. The Test Plug hole is located on the back of the Gearbox. Filler Plug is located
on top back of Gearbox. MntP-R-0077.
Recommended lubricant is NGLI 000 Grease (Rhino P/N 00765444). Gearbox capacity 1 Quart.
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.
