MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
LUBRICATION:
Do not let excess grass collect on or around parts, particularly when operating in sandy areas.
The illustration below and on the next pages, show the location of all the lubrication fittings.
Use an SAE multi-purpose, lithium type grease for all the locations shown on figure 9. Be sure to clean the grease
fittings before applying any grease. Daily lubrication of the driveline U-joints is necessary. Failure to maintain
proper lubrication will result in premature wear and damage to the U-joints, gearbox and/or driveline.
Lubrication intervals shown are for mowers operating under normal conditions. Sever or unusual conditions
may require more frequent lubrication.
WARNING!
Always disengage the tractor PTO before raising the mower for transport or making adjustments.
Before operating the mower, make sure tat it is properly lubricated and throughly inspected. Only a minimum of
time and eort is required to regularly lubricate and maintain it.
Following a regular program will provide long life and trouble free operation.
