I have a Land Pride 2572 power rake- the drive sprocket lost some teeth-apparently I did not maintain right chain tension-so in process of repairing I was unsure as to proper fill level for 90W gear oil. I sent Landpride an email and a tech quickly called me and told me to use flowable grease not gear lube which my 20+ year old manual said to use. Only "flowable grease" I can find is " Super S Cotton Picker 00 that tractor supply has -for 5 bucks, 32 oz. I'm sure I can get my Land Pride dealer to order the Land Pride part no. which is a Shell product but anyone use this Shell product -Gadus S2-V2200? How about the TSS product?
By the way-very helpful LandPride tech said benefit of the flowable grease is it sticks to the chain so the top sprocket gets grease, vs the gear lube which typically gets thrown off before it reaches the top sprocket.
Appreciate any opinions
