Check gearbox oil

The gearbox is pre-lubricated and sealed at the factory. Unless there is evidence of leakage or
service has been performed on the gearbox, no additional lubricate should be required until 50
hours of use.
For future use, check the oil level after every 50 hours of use.
If you remove the oil level plug and no oil flows out, please add oil and then screw the oil level
plug.
NOTICE: recommended motor oil: GL-5, GL-6, SAE80W-90. Do not use synthetic oil!
If you want to replace oil, place the machine on a level ground. The machine must be stopped
and still warm. Unscrew the filter cap and the drain plug. When the oil is drained, replace the
drain plug, fill up with fresh oil and then replace the filter cap.
