Lubricating the Machine
The traction unit and cutting unit have grease fittings that
must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose
Lithium Base Grease. If machine is operated under normal
conditions, lubricate all grease fittings after every 25 hours
of operation. Lubricate all grease fittings immediately after
every washing, regardless of interval listed.
The grease fittings that must be lubricated are: lift arm
pivot (2), lift cylinder (4), brake arm pivots (2) (Fig. 22);
brake pivot (1), brake pivots (2) (Fig. 23); traction pedal
pivot (1) (Fig. 24); engine to pump drive shaft (2) (Fig. 25
and 26); traction adjuster (1) (Fig. 27); P.T.O. Bearing
(Fig. 28).
2 wheel drive machines only—cylinder end (2), center
pivot (1), spindles (2), tie rod assembly (2) (Fig. 29).
4 wheel drive machines only—center pivot (1) (Fig. 30); tie
rod assembly (2), king pin bushings (2) The top fitting on
the king pin should only be lubricated annually
(2 pumps), cylinder ends (2) (Fig. 31).
Cutting deck (2 & 4 wheel drive machines)—blade spindles
(7), lift cylinder ball joints (4) and wing deck pivot pins (4)
(Fig. 32); castor fork shaft (4) (Fig. 33); PTO to gear box
drive shaft assembly (3) (Fig. 34); wing deck ball joints (4)
