Lubricate Dozer Blade

Lubricate the dozer blade as shown in Figure 2. Where an oil can is shown, wipe the area clean, apply a few drops of oil (SAE 30), then wipe up drips or spills.

In general, linkage connections and other parts that have partial rotational or sliding movement should be lubricat- ed periodically with SAE 30 weight oil. Avoid applying excessive amounts of oil since this may cause a build-up of dirt around the lubricated area, making subsequent lubrication more difficult to accomplish.
