Greasing and Lubrication
Service Interval/Specification
Grease the machine after every 50 operating hours or
yearly, whichever occurs first. Grease more frequently
when operating conditions are extremely dusty or
sandy.
Grease Type: General-purpose grease.
How to Grease
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO), set the
parking brake, lower the attachment lift, and turn
the ignition key to “STOP” to stop the engine.
Remove the ignition key.
2. Clean the grease fittings with a cloth. Make sure
to scrape off any paint from the front of the
fitting(s).
3. Connect a grease gun to the fitting. Pump grease
into the fittings until grease begins to ooze out of
the bearings.
4. Wipe up any excess grease.
Where to Add Grease
1. Lubricate the left–hand and right–hand spindles
until grease begins to ooze out of the bearings
(Fig. 30).
2. Lubricate the front axle pivot (Fig. 30).
