Jenson A530 question

[Treeman123]

Hi guys

 

Just recently bought a Jenson and have no experience with them. What oil and how do I check the level on the photo attached please? 

 

Thanks

Maybe a slightly different layout, but on my 530 the see through gauge is at the bottom of the attached pic

Thats the Hydraulic level which is the same as mine. Think thats on the other side of the chipper

I have a feeling that on the gearbox there on the side you see them 2 orange nuts the top one checks the level of fluid. Best thing to do is ring a Jensen dealer and see if they will give you a manual will tell you in there.

I'd be inclined to say that it could well be gear oil or EP90, and it may have a level in the centre. Remove the bolt or cap head in the centre and with it on level ground, it should just start to dribble out. But, as another poster said, go to TH White, the importer and ask their service department to confirm at that gearbox will be expensive if you bust it.

 

Re checking the picture, it may even be the fixing in the centre of the lower casting. EP90 stinks and is quite viscous so that may be enough to get pulling and transferred around the inside of the box.
