B. Helical gear center drive lubricants Reference Figure 1-15. :
Use only SAE 30W, SAE 40W, SAE 50W, or SAE 20W-50 multi viscosity engine oil. Use of im-
proper oil will void the gearbox warranty. Oil capacity is approximately one (1) U.S. gallon (3.8 Li-
ters).
C. In-season spur gear center drive maintenance.
Helical gear center drive gearboxes should be inspected periodically during the operating season
as follows:
1. The proper oil level (1-1/2” [45 mm] from top of gear case) should be maintained at all
times.
2. Contaminated or emulsified oil should be replaced with fresh oil.
3. Input & output shaft seals should be inspected for excessive leaks and replaced if neces
sary.
4. Motor drain holes must be kept clear to allow moisture to drain.
5. Expansion chamber vent holes.
