Greetings All
I have a question regarding final drive servicing with the mower and associated bracketry installed. I have had the tractor and mower set up 2 years and only use the tractor for mowing my 2 acre yard. It was a great investment and makes cutting the grass a pleasure. I recently figured out while doing the spring service that the square drive plugs to check the servicing are blocked by the mower arms. So long story short I have never checked it and only recently after closely reading the service manual did I figure out that it needed checked. Upon inspection of the final drive pans and area no leaks were noted. Am I safe or do I need to pull the mower and mower arms? I intend to pull the mower and arms after the mowing season and drill a hole in each arm like Woods should have done when they built it. Any advice or inputs are appreciated. Thanks
