@Refer to Maintenance "ENGINE" Section
IMPORTANT: Do not oilor grease the pivot
points which have special nylon bearings.
Viscous lubricants wilt attract dust and dirt
that will shorten the lifeof the self-lubricating
bearings, Ifyou feelthey must be lubricated,
use only a dry, powdered graphite type lu-
bricant sparingly.
