CENTER & WING GEARBOXES
.
The Gearboxes have been filled with lubricant to
the proper Level prior to shipment. However, you
should check the oil level on dipstick 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 dipstick be removed
after every 8 to 10 hours of operation and oil added
until it is at proper level on dipstick. Filler Plugs are
located on top of all Gearboxes. Use Rhino Special
Gearbox Lube (P/N 00786250)) with a capacity is 6-
1/2 quarts. FIGURE MntP-0004

conditions may cause the Grease Seals to leak.
Use Rhino Special Gearbox Lube (P/N 00786250). Gearbox capacity is 3 quarts for divider gearbox.

reduce the possibility of back injuries.
