You unscrew the top plug on the lower unit and carefully unscrew the drain plug on the bottom and quickly put the nozzle end of the oil container in it and keep squeezing till the oil just starts to come out of the top hole. This runs any water and/or air out and guarantees that the gearbox is lubed properly.

There are two fill/drain plugs located on the right hand site of the lower case. Remove them and drain the lubricant. Once emptied force the new lube into the case using the lower port. When it starts to come out the top it is full and you can reinstall the drain plugs. Always fill from the bottom port or air pockets will get trapped in the case.
