Reverse gearbox

Sounds like a stupid question but how do you fill it with oil!

Only a very small hole in the filler so presume you have to to remove one of the side fittings to let air out - but which one?

Cheers Greg

the filler plug is the silver hex bolt on the side, it has a vent orange one on top, best bet is an old washing up liquid bottle with a piece of tube and pump the oil in, or remove breather cap and fill from the top

yep breather needs extending, should be able to get a male male adeapter and a 90 degree fitting to let you run a pipe into the breather pot from any agricultral engineers etc, if not you end up with oil everywhere the first time you use it !!!, with the breather pipe fitted never had a problem
