OUTPUT SPEED REDUCER
The RXC and the output speed reducer, if any do not share a common lubricant. Both units must be maintained
separately. If an output speed reducer is supplied, follow its lubrication schedule. The recommended lubricant for some
common output speed reducers is shown below. Oil level plugs are used on most oil-filled output speed reducers.
Add oil to these reducers until it reaches the level of the plug.
