9.2.2
Gearbox
The gearbox transmits the available power of the tractor PTO through a flexible drive shaft coupling and into the
rotor via a belt driven pulley system. G
earbox lubrication capacity is detailed in the ‘Machine general
specification’ in chapter 1.0 and recommended oils are detailed in chapter 5.0. Gearbox mounting fasteners
should always be torqued to at least 90-100Nm
IMPORTANT:
Always check oil level before use and top up if necessary.
Drain and replace the oil after the first 50 hours' work and thereafter every 500 hours or 12 months, whichever is
the earlier. The positions of the filler plugs (F), level plugs (L), drain plugs (D) and breather (B) are shown for the
gearbox in Figure 9.1 below for all models of Rolliflail.
NOTE:
The location of the filler plug (F), level plug (L), drain plug (D) and breather plug(B) depends on whether
the machine is a right hand (RH) or left hand (LH) build.
