3.3.9.  DIFFERENTIAL/CHAIN CASE - LUBRICATION 
1.  Check the fill/level plug, for cracks and wear. 
Replace fill/level plug if signs of  wear are visible. 
 
IMPORTANT:  If the Rear Engine Rider will be on 
its rear bumper for longer than two hours, remove 
the battery. Refer to Section “BATTERY 
REMOVAL”. 
 
2. To check lubricant, remove fill/level plug and 
visually inspect for lubricant on the internal parts of 
the differential.  If no lubricant is visible on the 
internal parts of the differential, add “SNAPPER 
Transmission” grease as needed.  See Figure 3.7. 

 

 
IMPORTANT: Overfilling of the differential with lubricant will 
cause lubricant to leak onto drive components of the Rear 
Engine Rider.  
 

3.  Check fill/level plug for damage. If signs of wear or 
cracks are visible, replace plug with new plug. See 
Figure 3.8. 
4.  To check lubricant in chain case, remove fill/level 
plug and look for lubricant on the internal 
components of the chain case.  If no lubricant is 
visible, add "SNAPPER Transmission” grease as 
needed.  See Figure 3.8.
