Lubrication - Toro 30821 Operator's Manual

Greasing Bearings and
Bushings
The traction unit has grease fittings that must be
lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose
Lithium Base Grease. If the machine is operated
under normal conditions, lubricate bearings and
bushings after every 50 hours of operation.
Bearings and bushings must be lubricated daily
when operating conditions are extremely dusty and
dirty. Dusty and dirty operating conditions could
cause dirt to get into the bearings and bushings,
resulting in accelerated wear. Lubricate bearings
and bushings immediately after every washing,
regardless of the interval listed.
The traction unit bearings and bushings that must
be lubricated are: Rear cutting unit pivot (Fig. 18),
Front cutting unit pivot (Fig. 19), SideWinder
cylinder ends (2) (Model 03201 only) (Fig. 20),
Steering pivot (Fig. 21), Rear lift arm pivot and lift
cylinder (2) (Fig. 22), Left front lift arm pivot and
lift cylinder (2) (Fig. 23), Right front lift arm pivot
and lift cylinder (2) (Fig. 24), Neutral adjust
mechanism (Fig. 25), Mow/Transport slide
(Fig. 26), Belt tension pivot (Fig. 27) Steering
cylinder (Fig. 28). Note: If desired, an additional
grease fitting may be installed in other end of
steering cylinder. Tire must be removed, fitting
installed, greased, fitting removed and plug
installed (Fig. 29). IMPORTANT: Do not
lubricate Sidewinder cross tube, bearing blocks
are self-lubricated.
