As I just bought a used rotary cutter Kodiak Standard Duty 6', I wanted to change the gearbox oil, just in case. User manual calls for "140 weight oil", whatever it is.
After watching some videos online I was expecting to see a "milky substance", i.e. a mix of oil and water. But when I opened the oil plug, what I saw was a super thick brown substance, slow as molasses.
Can anybody tell me what it is? Is this some kind of oil, is it still good?
It's so thick; I dread trying to siphon it out of the box.
