Abstract
A work equipment transmission includes a gear, a gearbox, and a baffle. The gearbox housing contains the gear within an internal cavity that defines a sump and is defined by a first housing body having a first baffle-retaining surface and an outlet opening and a second housing body having a second baffle-retaining surface. The baffle has a shroud wall defining a peripheral lip for engagement with the first baffle-retaining surface, an annular collar having an annular collar lip for engagement with the second baffle-retaining surface, and an end wall. The baffle is mounted within the gearbox housing, the end wall extending proximate the gear and the shroud wall extending at least partially around the gear. The baffle is mounted by a clamping force between the first housing body and the second housing body.
