Replacing the vent valve
To ensure fault-free functioning, renew the vent valve once a year.
When replacing, prevent dirt and damaging atmospheres from entering the gearbox.
If too much oil is contained in the gearbox, oil will escape from the vent valve.
Correct the oil quantity and replace the vent valve.
