Lubrication
The vehicle has grease fittings that must be lubricated
regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease.
If machine is operated under normal conditions, lubricate
all bearings and bushings after every 100 hours of
operation. More frequent lubrication is required if used for
heavy duty vehicle operations.
The grease fitting locations and quantities are: Steering
pitman arm (1) and Steering ball joint ends (2) (Fig. 24),
Tie rod ends (4) (Fig. 25), Front ball joints (4) (Fig. 25),
Rear drive shafts (18) (Fig. 26), Pedal Pivots (4) (Fig. 27);
and Front pivot bushings (2) (Fig. 28).
Important When greasing drive shaft universal shaft
bearing crosses, pump grease until it comes out of all 4
cups at each cross.
1. Wipe grease fitting clean so foreign matter cannot be
forced into the bearing or bushing.
2. Pump grease into the bearing or bushing.
3. Wipe off excess grease.
