Lubrication
Where To Lubricate (Gear Drive Models - Figure 16, Hydro-
Drive Models - Figure 17)
Models with grease fittings: Lubricate with
grease gun.
Apply grease with a brush to the areas shown.
Lubricate the areas shown with engine oil.
NOTE: Apply grease to the steering gear as sembly.
CAUTION: If the unit is operated in dry areas that have
sand, use a dry graphite spray to lubricate the unit.
Check The Tires
Check the air pressure in the tires. Tires with too much air
pressure will cause the unit to ride rough. Also, the wrong
air pressure will keep the mower housing from cutting level.
The correct air pressure is: Front Tires 0,97 BAR (14 PSI),
Rear Tires 0,69 BAR (10 PSI).
