What should be the maximum levels for 8hp Gearbox & Diff be.

Post by The Bradford man »

Hello.

Im just wondering What the levels should be. My fathers old 8 didn't have a gear box dip stick or bung on side of the gearbox. He had to drill a wee hole in top of the gearbox lid to put oil on.
Also the diff only has a lid on the top and bottom. Not one on the side.
Ive been guessing as how much I put I could be overfilling or not putting enough in.

Can you show me where the maximum mark would be on the photos attached below.

Thanks in advance
