LUBRICATION

Lubricating the Cables

If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation.

If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil begins to escape from the bottom.

Tip: Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape it so that it seals against the sheath and allow the cable to hang vertically from the bag overnight. If you do not succeed in lubricating the cable, it must be replaced.

Lubricating in Accordance with the Lubrication Schedule

1. Front Wheel Mount

Lubricate with a grease gun, one zerk for each wheel mount, until the grease is forced out.

Use only good quality bearing grease.

Grease from well-known brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality.

2. Front Wheel Bearings

Lubricate with a grease gun, one zerk for each set of wheel bearings, until the grease is forced out.

Use only good quality bearing grease.

3. Deck spindle

Lower the cutting deck completely.

If you use grease gun without rubber hose, the foot plate must be removed.

Lubricate with a grease gun, one zerk, 2-3 strokes.

Use only good quality bearing grease.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Use minimal lubrication and remove excess lubricant so that is does not come into contact with belts or belt pulley drive surfaces.
