I had about the same thing with an R50. I eneded up taking it to the dealers shop, they pulled the rotor and gear box off and found a "plug" that covers a hole to tear apart the gear box was leaking. It leaked down the inside of the rotor cage, all the trash in there kept it cleaned off and could no see the leak. I was putting oil in every day. It must have worked, I do not add oil anymore. Hope this helps.

Haven't checked. Hope to look at it this weekend after getting our barley planted. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm afraid that may be the case. Will look at further this weekend after finish planting barley. Since, it uses very little in high gear, it may have to wait until after soybean harvest. It may give me the reason I needed to go all the way with hyper mods this winter. Thanks again, will post what I find out.
