Lubrication
Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 20
through 23 as well as the following lubrication points.
Grease:
• front caster wheel axles & yokes
• deck lift pivot blocks
• mower deck spindles
• mower deck idler arm
Use grease fittings when present. Disassemble parts
to apply grease to moving parts when grease fittings are not
installed.
Not all greases are compatible. Red Grease (p/n 5022285)
is recommended, automotive-type high-temperature, lithium
grease may be used when this is not available.
Oil:
• control handle pivots
• seat plate pivots
• deck lift 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.

front caster and install a 1/4-28 grease fitting.
2. Grease the front caster.
