LUBRICATION
Service Interval: 25 hours.
Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 18
through 22 as well as the following lubrication points.
Grease:
• front wheel grease fittings
• front wheel bushings
• mower arbors
Use grease fittings when present.
Not all greases are compatible. Use automotive-type lithi-
um grease.
Oil:
• hydro linkage
• brake linkage
• frame pivot points
• mower deck height adjustment linkage
Generally, all moving metal parts should be oiled where
contact is made with other parts. Keep oil and grease off
belts and pulleys. Remember to wipe fittings and sur-
faces clean both before and after lubrication.
