@Refer to Maintenance "ENGINE" Section

IMPORTANT: Do not oil or grease the pivot

points which have special nylon bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract dust and dirt

that wil! shorten the life of the self-lubricating bearings° If you feel they must be lubricated, use only a dry, powdered graphite type lu- bricant sparingly.
