Going to mow the road ditches. Have a John Deere model 11 trail type sickle mower and was wondering how the gear box was lubricated. Looks like there would probably be two sprockets and a chain in there. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.

Take a look at the [b:654c4848f0]HOUSING FOR PITMAN AND MAIN DRIVE SHAFTS[/b:654c4848f0] diagram below.

Note the 1" pipe plug (Key 23).

Remove the 1" pipe plug and fill to the bottom of the threads with 80-90 gear oil as suggested below by [b:654c4848f0]DeltaRed[/b:654c4848f0].

Hope this helps.
