LUBRICATION
Service Interval: Every 25 Hours
Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 16
through 20 as well as the following lubrication points.
Grease:
• front axle pivot
• front wheel bearings
• steering linkage
• foot pedal
• mower pivots
• mower arbors
• transmission idler assembly pivot
• rear axle shafts (remove wheels)
Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts
to apply grease to moving parts when grease fittings
are not present.
Not all greases are compatible. Simplicity Lithium
Grease is recommended; however, automotive-type
lithium grease may be used when this is not available.
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 fit-
tings and surfaces clean both before and after lubri-
cation.
