MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)

GEAR HOUSING SERVICE

WARNING

The gear housing gets very warm after long peri-
ods of use. Do not touch the housing until it has
cooled.

1. Check the gear housing for lubricant every 50 hours

of operation.

2. To check the lubricant level, remove the fill plug

(Fig. 34). The lubricant should be up to the bottom
edge of the check hole. If it is low, bring the level up
with a good quality, lithium-based, #2, multi-purpose
grease.

3. Reinstall the fill plug and tighten securely to prevent

leakage.
