Lubricate the unit at the locations shown in Figures 15
through 19 as well as the following lubrication points.
Grease:
• front wheel grease fittings
• front wheel bushings
• mower pivots
• mower arbors
Use grease fittings when present.
Not all greases are compatible. Use automotive-type
lithium grease.
Oil:
• hydro linkage
• brake linkage
• mower deck height adjustment linkage

Generally, all moving metal parts should be oiled where
contact is made with other parts. Keep oil and grease off
belts and pulleys. Remember to wipe fittings and
surfaces clean both before and after lubrication.
