Greasing The Bearings And Bushings - Toro 30826 Operator's Manual

Greasing the 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 the bearings and bushings after every 50 hours of
operation. The 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 grease fitting locations and quantities are:
• Rear cutting unit pivot (Fig. 22)
• Front cutting unit pivot (Fig. 23)
• Steering pivot (Fig. 24)
• Rear lift arm pivot and lift cylinder (2) (Fig. 25)
• Left front lift arm pivot and lift cylinder (2) (Fig. 26)
• Right front lift arm pivot and lift cylinder (2) (Fig. 27)
• Neutral adjust mechanism (Fig. 28)
• Mow/transport slide (Fig. 29)
• Belt tension pivot (Fig. 30)
• Steering cylinder (Fig. 31)
Note: If desired, an additional grease fitting may be
installed in the other end of the steering cylinder. Remove
the tire, install the fitting, grease the fitting, remove the
fitting, and install the plug (Fig. 32).
• Cutting unit spindle shaft bearings (1 per cutting unit)
(Fig. 33)
• Rear roller bearings (2 per cutting unit) (Fig. 34)
Note: The flush fittings on the rollers (Fig. 34) require a
grease gun nozzle adapter. Order Toro Part No. 107–1998
