Use the grease zerts pointed out in the photo to
grease the 3 bearings on the right hand side (from
the back of the spreader).These should be greased
after 8 hours of continuous use, as needed, or
before periods of storage. Make sure to grease all
available grease zerts. Make sure not to over grease
the bearings as it may cause damage to the bearing.
2-3 pumps of grease with a manual grease gun
should be sufficient for greasing the bearings. The
chain should be oiled using SAE 30 oil. Before oiling
the chain remember to remove the chain guard, and
replace after oiling is finished.
**Wheel bearings on the transport tires will need to
be repacked by hand twice a year.
