Transmission - Honda HARMONY FG100 Owner's Manual

Transmission Lubrication
The transmission is pre-lubricated at the factory.
At the beginning of each tilling season, or after every 25 hours of use during the season, the transmission
should be filled with grease.
Replacement grease should be a high quality petroleum based NLGI #2 general purpose grease usually
available in disposable guns at most hardware or automotive parts stores.
1. Place the tiller on the carrying handle
(see page 19).
2. Remove the lock pin from the right side tine
shaft by turning it UP [a] and pulling it out [b] as
shown. Wearing heavy gloves, remove both
right side tines.
3. Remove the dust cap.
The metal dust cap is held on with a set screw.
Loosen the set screw using a 3/32 inch allen
wrench. The dust cap should then slide off of
the tine shaft.
4. Lay the tiller on its left side so that the tine shaft
is vertical.
5. Remove the air vent screw and fill hole screw
from the transmission.
6. Fill the transmission by using a grease gun or
grease applicator at the fill hole screw opening.
Push the gun or applicator against the opening
so as to "seal" the nozzle of the gun or
applicator against the casting embossment.
Apply grease until grease begins to come out
of the top air vent hole.
7. Reinstall the air vent screw and fill hole screw.
8. Reinstall the dust cap and tighten the set screw.
9. Place a few drops of oil on tine tine shaft before
installing the tines.
10. Wear heavy gloves and reinstall the tines in the
reverse order of removal.
11. Install the lock pin throught the round side of
the tine shaft hole [a], then turn it over [b] to
lock it it in place.
