Every day before starting work check the oil level and, if needed, refill after having removed
the vent A on the top of the gear (Fig. 49). The oil level can be checked through check opening B
on the side of the gear. Please refill the oil until it is visible in the check opening B. The oil

the ground. Removing the old oil from the gearbox is done through the outlet C.
