Just did the cvt conversion on my old featherweight trowel machine and it really does make a big difference. But quick question what type of oil do you use for the gearbox?
Thanks Erick i ask for the video because a guy sold me one like the one you used on the video on the clutch and it old and everything but has a honda engine and it still runs pretty good for $300 i think was a good prize ....thanks
I showed in the video. Levanta la máquina y mueve las ojas haber si tienen juego para arriba y abajo. Si tienen juego, quita los brazos donde van las ojas y cambia los “bushings”. Son como relleno de metal entre brazos de la Oja y la araña que da vuelta a las ojas.
Eric how do you replace the gasket mine is leaking oil threw top and bottom on the gearbox ....do you know if the dealer will fix it im in the dallas area
Bet it has paid for itself many many times over...have a great weekend Erik
It has. :)
Great tips as always Erick!!
Great Video!
Full synthetic oil is the best thing I started using. Motor will run forever with it
Wow Erik! great video yet again!
i'm sorry if it seems derivative but i am trying to help.

Check bushings and if it needs them replace them. It will run like a champ after that.

What transmission oil is best?
Is it possible to change a regular clutch on a ride on power trowel with a Honda GX690 to a CVT clutch?
Anything is possible. ;)
What weight of gearbox oil?
How do u balance blades on that type of machine
It has adjustment bolts on the blade arms.
They also sell a tool to check them.
