I just bought a used rototiller. I changed all the fluids and checked her over real good. There was little to no fluid in the reservoir where the chain is. I tilled an acre field the other day and appeared to have lost literally a couple ounces from what appears to be a seal on the chain side.

I'm pretty mechanically inclined and would like to do the repair myself. What am I about to get myself into? Special tools? Any info on this repair would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

On that model it's fairly easy:

remove the chain case cover, remove chain and bottom gear, remove bearing holder and oil seal and oil seal cover.

Install new seal, Use RTV on oil seal cover, replace sprocket and chain use new gasket on chain case cover, fill with oil and get back to work. ;)
