Re: gear oil capacity

Just changed seals and gears in our Crown PE4500, it is a double pallet deep model.
I am wondering how much gear oil to put back in the drive unit?
Thanks in advance.

The breather right below the brake drum is where you add oil, on the opposite side of the drive unit, you will see a 3/4" bolt. Take it out, and when oil starts coming out of that, it's filled
