SERVICE INTERVAL: YEARLY

We recommend removing the rear wheel hubs and lubri- cating the axle shafts yearly. This prevents the wheel hubs from seizing onto the axle shaft and makes future service easier.

1.Turn off the ignition, turn off the PTO, engage the parking brake, and block the front tires.

2.Using a jack or chain hoist positioned at the center of the rear frame, carefully jack the unit up until the rear tires are approximately 1" - 2" (2.5-5cm) off the ground.

NOTE: For overall unit stability during service, do not jack rear end higher than required for wheel removal.

3.Support the rear of the unit on jackstands positioned under the rear frame.

NOTE: Your axle assembly may differ slightly from the

assembly pictured: the quantity of washers is adjusted on a tractor by tractor basis during assembly to allow a small amount of axle end-play.
