Unscrew the plug screw and drain the gearbox oil. The magnetic plug shows the condition of the gearbox in terms of dirt and wear. Clean the inside of the gearbox with the appropriate cleaning additive and re-screw the plug. It is recommended to use 75W-90 for the gearbox. Once filled, close the upper fill hole by screwing in the respective screw. Perform the same operation on the final drive by also unscrewing the drain screw, as shown in the video, cleaning with the additive, and re-screwing the plug. Then fill through the upper hole using 75W-90 and finally close the fill hole of the final drive. Good luck!
