Checking the Bidirectional
Clutch Lubricant (Model 30455
Only)
The Bidirectional Clutch is shipped from the factory filled
with Mobil DTE 15 M anti-wear hydraulic fluid. However,
check level before engine is first started and every 50 hours
thereafter. Capacity is 8 oz. Check daily for signs of oil
loss.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove check/fill plug from clutch housing (Fig. 9)
and make sure lubricant is up to bottom of hole. If level
is low, add enough lubricant to bring the level up to the
bottom of the check/fill plug hole.
Note: Do not use gear lube in clutch housing.

Checking the Tire Pressure
The tires are over-inflated for shipping. Therefore, release
some of the air to reduce the pressure. Correct air pressure
in the front and rear tires is 20 psi (138 kPa).
Important
Maintain even pressure in all tires to assure
a good quality-of-cut and proper machine performance. Do
not under-inflate.

Checking the Lubricant in the
Gear Box
The gear box is designed to operate on SAE 80–90 wt. gear
lube. Although the gear box is shipped with lubricant from
the factory, initially, check the level before operating the
cutting unit and every 50 hours thereafter. Check daily for
signs of oil loss.
1. Position the machine and cutting unit on a level surface.
2. Remove check plug from side of gear box (Fig. 10) and
make sure lubricant is up to bottom of hole. If level of
lubricant is low, remove fill plug on top of gear case
(Fig. 10) and add enough lubricant to bring it up to
bottom of hole in side.
