Greasing the Machine
The 13 grease fittings on the mower should be greased at
least every 25 hours. Lubricate using a No. 2 multi–purpose
lithium base grease. A hand operated grease gun is
recommended for best results.
The grease fitting locations are as follows:
• 2 on the front roller (Fig. 24)
• 2 on the reel bearings (Fig. 24)
• 2 on the drum axles (Fig. 25)
• 3 on the differential (Fig. 25)
• 2 on the reel countershaft bearings (Fig. 26)
• 2 on the belt idler pivots (Fig. 27).
1. Wipe each grease fitting with a clean rag.
2. Pump grease into each fitting until it begins to get
difficult to pump the gun.
Important
Do not apply too much pressure or grease
seals will become permanently damaged.
3. Wipe off excess grease.
