Lubrication
The Tines Drive Transmission Case has grease installed at the factory. We recommend that once a year to have the Transmission
opened by a qualified service professional and the grease level checked. Add a molylithium type grease only if the level of the
grease is below the top of the gears. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Prior to performing any maintenance, you must first shut off the Engine; wait five minutes to allow parts to cool and disconnect
the Spark Plug wire, keeping it away from the Spark Plug.
