Not another Sikorsky RFM misconception?
Actually probably more of a misconception by pilots and training staff over the years, although admittedly a bit vague in the RFM.

S61 crews need to be aware that on ELS none of the gears (planetary, sun, TTO, etc) are receiving lube oil, so they should consider that the 61 transmission will probably not last much longer than the 92 did.
