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 Test Plug hole.
Figures MntP-R-0047, MntP-R-0048.
Required lubricant is NLGI 000 Grease (P/N 00765444). The outer gearbox capacity is three quarts and the
center gearbox has a five quart capacity.
NOTE: Overfilling the Gearbox will cause pressure to build up and cause Oil Seals to leak.
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 the Wheel Hub and Tail Wheel Beam.
Grease after every 10 hours of use.
