I bought a Woods GTO40 tiller with my bx2200. Noticed a small puddle under it after it set for a month in the garage. It seemed like the leak was coming from the chain drive cover. I talked to the dealer, and they ordered me a new chain cover gasket under warranty (I was going to install). I finally got it dirty 2 weeks ago and after that it was aparent that its not the chain cover leaking: the oil is coming from the 4 bolt cover for the tine shaft on the left side where it exits the chain drive(either the seal or the gasket).
Anybody had a problem with a Woods tiller leaking like this?? If so, how is Woods for backing warranty issues? The dealer (Frederick Equipment) has been great, but I don't know if they would repair in their shop or if Woods handles warranty service some other way. Changing a gasket is one thing; but tearing the drive apart is something I won't do with it under warranty. I need the tiller now and would hate to have to send it out for repair at this time.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
