LUBRICATION
Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 11
through 13 as well as the following lubrication points.
Grease:
• front caster wheel axles
• motion control pivots
• suspension a-arms
• rear deck mounts
• deck lift pivots
• deck lift foot pedal
• front pivot frame
• blade spindles
Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts
to apply grease to moving parts when grease fittings
are not installed.
Not all greases are compatible. Ferris Red Grease is
recommended, automotive-type high-temperature,
lithium grease may be used when this is not avail-
able.
Oil:
• control handle pivots
• floor plate hinge
• 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.
