[QUOTE="jerry, post: 8913, member: 931"] Jason, did you get a manual yet? The two big nuts you see on the side of the machine are covers for the clutch adjusting nuts which are under them. They are castellated and have a cotter pin locking them. You can take the outer big ones off and remove the side cover and take a look around in there without affecting anything. If it is the driven sheave shaft that is leaking it could take some time to repair the seal. If it is not leaking a lot just leave it till you have time. Check the oil level at the two 1/8 pipe fittings toward the front on the left side chaincase.There is one for high and one for low level. The two chain cases are connected so the level is the same for both. Maybe it is just over full. Don't start it with the side cover off unless you want a oil bath. I did that. [/QUOTE]
