General Lubrication - Ariens Sno-Thro 921 Série Manuel Du Propriétaire/Utilisateur

CHECK AUGER GEARCASE
IMPORTANT: Proper oil level must be
maintained.
Gear cases are filled to the correct level at
the factory. Unless there is evidence of
leakage, no additional lubricant should be
required. Check oil level each season or
every 25 hours of operation.
IMPORTANT: Be sure unit is resting on a
level surface before checking lubricant levels.
To ensure adequate lubricant level:
1. Remove filler plug and seal washer
(Figure 23). Lubricant must be 2.38 in. –
2.63 in. (6.05 cm –6.68 cm) from the flat
surface of the inspecition cover.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT remove the
inspection cover.
2. Check oil level with suitable dipstick
device. Add lubricant if required.
IMPORTANT: Use only Ariens L3 synthetic
severe duty gear lube (Part Number
00068800). Use of other lubricants will void
unit warranty.
3. Reinstall filler screw and seal washer to
12,5 lbf-ft. (16,95 N•m).
IMPORTANT: Improper torquing or omission
of seal washer will void unit warranty.
NOTE: Replace seal washer after every 5th
inspection.
