Conditioner Drive Gearbox
The conditioner drive gearbox, located inside the drive
compartment at the right side of the mower conditioner,
transfers power from the gearbox to the conditioner rolls.
The gearbox does not require routine maintenance
or service other than checking and changing the oil. If
repairs are required, however, remove it and have it
serviced by your MacDon Dealer.
