      Would anybody know the correct level/weight of grease in the 2 speed g/box of a VM30, not sure if the level that was in it was correct.

          According to the Boxford original instructions the gearbox was filled with BP Energrease F600-EP at works and did not need further attention. When I cleaned and refilled my gearbox I used Castrol Semi Liquid Grease, Castrol Spherol – EPO Grease, as I recall around 20 fl. oz, enough to cover the gears at the base of the gearbox.
