LUBRICATION

Wheel and Deck Zerks

Use only good quality bearing grease.

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

Front Wheel Mount

Lubricate with a grease gun until the grease is forced out.

Front Wheel Bearings

Lubricate 3-4 strokes with a grease gun on each set of wheel bearings.

Deck Spindles

Lower the cutting deck completely.

If a grease gun without rubber hose is used, the foot plate must be removed to access the center spindle..

Lubricate with a grease gun, 2-3 strokes per spindle.
