Maintenance
Oil:
• control handle pivots
• discharge chute hinge
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 surfaces clean both before and after
lubrication.
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the unit at the following lubrication points
shown in Figure 16.
Grease:
• front caster wheel axles
• front caster yokes
• rear suspension pivots (select models)
• roller straps (deck lift pivots)
• mower deck idler arm pivot
• mower deck arbors
Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts
to apply grease to moving parts when grease fittings
are not installed.
Not all greases are compatible. Use automotive-type
lithium grease.
