[QUOTE="the.hogman, post: 43408, member: 5527"] Found that the chain wells are not designed to hold oil for lubrication. They are designed to be flushed with water periodically to remove debris and the chains and sprockets are to be oiled and maintained regularly. Got all of this from the service manual I finally found on eBay. On another note, pulled all axles, milled new keyways, cut longer keys and tapped sprockets for set screws to hold them as well. Got all new bearing races, bearings and seals as well as new 60 chains. Really a pretty easy job since I have all the tools in the shop... Once everything was set to specs, a very tight machine in the axle and sprocket area. Now on to getting her started. Already put the motor back together with good compression and new seals. Spark is there as well as AC current to the rectifier. Once it runs I am expecting to find hydraulic leaks.... Hopefully will have it up and running by the weekend. [/QUOTE]
