Grease Fitting and Oil Point Lubrication
Lubricate the grease ttings and oil points after ev ery
25 hours of operation. Lubricate more often when
operating in dusty or dirty conditions. Use SAE
general purpose lithium or molybdenum base grease
for grease ttings and light machine oil (SAE 10) to
lubricate oil points. Lubricate the locations shown
in the Chassis and Deck Lubrication Points
illustration.
NOTE: PTO universal joints (on the deck and trac-
tor) require routine lubrication after every 8 hours
of running time. Remove tractor PTO quick discon-
nect tube assembly for easy access to grease t-
tings.
NOTE: The best way to lubricate the PTO tube half
of the universal joint assembly is to remove it from
the tractor. See instructions for removing and install-
ing PTO quick coupler, refer to Deck Installation in
Mower Deck Installation on Tractor in the Assem-
bly Instructions.
