Too much old oil remains stuck to the
gearwheels preventing the removal of any
suspended matter present in the gearbox.
• It can take some time until the used oil
has completely drained.
- Lift the right side of the cutter bar.
- Take out oil drain plug (62), let oil run out and dispose
of waste oil correctly.
