STEP6: Check Gear Oil Levels
Your tiller has two separatetransmis-
sions: one for the Power Unit (Figure 2-
12), the other for the Tine Attachment
(Figure 2-13). Both transmissions were
filled at the factory with SAE#85W-140
weight gear oil (with an A.P.I rating of
GL-4). Check level in both transmis-
sions to verify that they are still correct.
SeeSection 5, Transmission GearOil
Maintenancefor complete information
on how to check and fill the transmis-
sions.
