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, and turn the ignition key to
“OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key.
2. Clean the grease fittings with a rag. Make sure to
scrape any paint off 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 front wheels and spindles until
grease begins to ooze out of the bearings
(Fig. 23).
2. Lubricate the front axle pivot (Fig. 23).
