Cutting Units
Each cutting unit has two grease fittings per blade
spindle. Either fitting can be used for greasing, which
ever is more accessible. Under normal conditions, lubri-
cate spindle bearings with No. 2 General Purpose Lithi-
um Base Grease or Molybdenum base grease, after
every 50 hours of operation.
IMPORTANT: Lubricate cutting units immediately
after washing. This helps to purge water out of bear-
ings and increases bearing life.
1. Wipe grease fitting with a clean rag.
IMPORTANT: Do not apply too much pressure or
grease seals will be permanently damaged.

2. Apply grease until a small amount appears at bottom
of spindle housing (under deck).
3. Wipe excess grease away.
