TRANSMISSION LUBRICATION
The transmission is pre-lubricated at the factory.
At the beginning of each tilling season, or after every 25 hours of use
during the season, the transmission should be filled with grease.
Replacement grease should be a high quality petroleum based
NLGI #2 general purpose grease usually available in disposable tubes
at most hardware or automotive parts stores.
1. Place the tiller on the left side as shown.
2. Remove the lock pin from the right side tine shaft by turning it UP
[a] and pulling it out [b] as shown. Wearing heavy gloves, remove
both right side tines.
3. Remove the air vent screw and fill hole screw from the
transmission.
4. Fill the transmission by using a grease gun or grease applicator at
the fill hole screw opening. Push the gun or applicator against the
opening so as to seal the nozzle of the gun or applicator against
the casting embossment. Apply grease until grease begins to
come out of the top air vent hole.
5. Reinstall the air vent screw and fill hole screw.
6. Clean the tine shaft and place a few drops of oil on the tine shaft
before installing the tines.
7. Wear heavy gloves and reinstall the tines in the reverse order of
removal.
8. Install the lock pin [c] through the round side of the tine shaft hole
then turn it over [d] to lock it in place.
