at the factory. However,you should check
the gear oil levelto make certain it is

drive shaft on one side of the hole,
3. The gearoil level is correct if the gear
oil is approximately halfway up the side of
the drive shaft,
4. If the gear oil level is low, add gear oil
by referring to "A. To Checkthe Transmis-
sion GearOil Level"in Section 5,
STEP 7: Add Motor Oil to Engine
