7.4 Transmission Gears Lubrication
The transmission gears in the gear case need be lubricated periodically with gear grease. Check
the gear case grease level about every 50 hours of operation by removing the sealing screw on
the side of the case.
If no grease can be seen on the sides of the gear, follow the steps below to fill with gear grease
up to 3/4 capacity. Do not completely fill the transmission gear case.
1.
Position the snow shovel attachment so that the sealing screw is facing upwards.
(Fig. 10)
2.
Use the hex wrench provided to loosen and remove the sealing screw.
3.
Use a grease syringe (not included) to inject some grease into the screw hole; do
not exceed 3/4 capacity. Use only grease that are performant at -30 celcius degree or
lower temperature. Using grease that are not performant at low temperature may
result in not functioning and or significative lost of battery life.
4.
Tighten the sealing screw after injection.
