Use SAE 90W gear lube in the gearbox. Fill to plug on
side of gearbox.
Check gearbox daily for evidence of leakage at both
seals and the gasket between the housing and cover. If
leakage is noted, repair immediately. There may be a
small amount of lube emitted from the vent plug; this is
not considered leakage.
Overfilling the gearbox will cause the excess gear lube
to blow out vent plug and ruin the belt.
