Refer to Maintenance "ENGINE" Section

IMPORTANT: Do not oil or grease the pivot points which have special nylon bear-ings. Viscous lubricants will attract dust and dirt that will shorten the life of the self-lubdcatieg bearings. If you feel they must be lubricated, use only a dry, powdered graphite type lubdcant sparingly.
