36" Gear Oil

Recommended Posts

Am I understanding correctly that my 36" tiller ( 07-36TL04) only takes one quart of gear oil?  It seems like it should require more.

That makes sense. It is a rather small, compact gearbox unlike a Unidrive. You never completely fill an enclosed cavity full of oil - as it heats up, it builds internal pressure. If it is not vented, it can send a lot of oil out under the seals...

There is a large drive chain inside that will drag the oil to the top of the case.
