to drain the lube,remove the pressure release on the front cover first,then remove the lowest bolt that mounts the drive snout,and catch the lube that comes out.them put the mounting bolt back in,there is a pipe plug near the bottom of the front cover,now add lube until it it coming out of the pipe plug hole,make sure it does not air lock,you can do this by rotating the drivesnout,replace the releife valve,adjust belt tension,clean up any spolled lube,and you are good till end of season.i use amzoil gear lube,but any brand of quality gear lube will work.i forgot to mention the obvious,when you are done filling,replace the pipe plug.
