CHECK TILLER TRANSMISSION GREASE
IMPORTANT
TILLER TRANSMISSION SHIPPED FROM FACTORY WITH THE PROPER AMOUNT OF LIQUID GREASE.
WHEN REPLACING GREASE, THE TILLER TRANSMISSION HOLDS 18-22 OUNCES. DO NOT OVERFILL
Check the grease level annually. To check the grease level:
1. Move tiller to level ground.
2. Remove grease level dipstick located between the handlebar
mounts on the engine mount. If the grease level couldn't
touch the dipstick, pls fill the grease.
3. Replace grease level dipstick in the filler hole.
4. Note that the front wheel transmission and rear tine
transmission are one common reservoir. When you add to the
front transmission, you must wait a short period of time for
the grease to flow rearward and equalize in both front and
rear. The dipstick will read correctly on level ground for both
gear units.
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE
Recommended tire pressure is 20 PSI. If tires do not have equal pressure, tiller will pull to one side.
LUBRICATION
Proper lubrication of moving mechanical parts is critical for proper care and maintenance.
Oil the moving parts shown at 10 hour intervals using a 30 weight oil.
CLEAN TINE AXLE SHAFT
