Bush Hog Maintenance

[Jer]

I’ve purchased a tractor with a 48” rotary Texas Belton Continental “Bush Hog”. I think its about 15 or 20 years old. I do not have a Manuel with the machine and would like to know what type oil to use if needed in the transfer case on the rear and also what other maintenance may be required.
Thanks, Jerry S.

You probably will need to use 80w to 90w gearbox oil.

As for other maintenence, find all grease fittings and make sure to keep them well greased.

I agree with Dave, keep the gearbox up to level and keep the blades sharp. Good Cutting!
