24 DR ALL-TERRAIN FIELD and BRUSH MOWER Safety & Operating Instructions

Grease Fittings

1. There are two grease fittings

below the black belt guard that

need maintenance (Figure 10):

■ The belt idler arm should

have 1-2 pumps of grease

every 25 operating hours.

■ The mower spindle should

have 3-4 pumps every 100

operating hours.

Note: Over greasing will cause

grease to leak out of the

seals onto the mower drive

belt. Unless instructed

otherwise, pump only

until you feel slight

resistance (1-2 pumps).

2. The drive chain should be

lubricated with FLUID

FILM® lubricant or SAE 30

oil every 25 operating hours—

more often if the machine is

operated in extremely dusty or

wet conditions. Remove the

chain cover, lubricate the

chain and replace the cover

(Figures 11 and 12).
