be lubricated are: power take off shaft and yokes
(Fig. 14); lift arm pivots (Fig. 14); right and left
push arm ball joints (Fig. 14); push arm pivot
bushings (Fig. 15); power take off pivot housing
blocks (Fig. 16); brake pivot bushings (Fig. 17);
rear wheel spindle bushings (Fig. 18); steering
plate bushings (Fig. 18); axle pin bushing (Fig.
