Nissan PTO gearbox lubrication source

[PeeBee]

Can anyone confirm the lubrication for the actual PTO gearbox on the side of the standard TD42 box receives lubrication oil from the main gearbox as I cant recall seeing a fill point? There appears to be a little sump in the casing however I am thinking this may fill from carry over of the gears when they mesh with the main gearbox gogs. None of my manuals, Gregory, Haines or Nissan mentions this - or at least I cant find the reference. Thanks

From memory, even though they're high up, their fill level is supplied by the main box. I'll jump under shortly and have a look.

I also think this is the case, just chasing down an issue that has arisen. I think the problem I have with selection between forward and reverse is cable jacket lubrication however I initially feared it might be from a poorly lubricated gearset. Anyway, pls advise what you find, I am going to lub up the cable assy tomorrow and see if it improves. Thanks for the effort, greatly appreciated
